Run a virus scanner on your computer.
If that doesn't help you might need to reformat.

Change your facebook password.

Change your password.
You accidentally got into a fake Facebook website and they got your password. ALWAYS make sure it's facebook.com when typing in your password.

It's called your account being hacked. Change your password. Someone is logging in to your account and using it.

In the future be careful when you see the facebook login page. Make sure it IS facebook.com That could be how they got your password.

As one poster partially mentioned, check for recenly added programs in the control panel and remove them

try Cnet.com to get Spybot and Windows Defender downloaded, update both and run them in normal boot mode you use every day then run them in safe mode as well.

change your password, this has absolutely nothing to do with your computer. You most likely entered your facebook information on an outside website when you thought you were on http://www.facebook.com
always check the url before entering information, make sure it says http://www.facebook.com_______
