How did someone hack my Facebook account?

[Bob B]

There are a few possibilities:

* Someone guessed your password- a lot of people are surprisingly predictable, and use names of pets, friends, and the like. The best way to generate a password is to open up a dictionary, pick a random word, and put a few numbers on the end.

* It's not impossible for secure wifi to be broken, or for https to be cracked. I'd say that's fairly unlikely, though, as they'd need to know what they were doing and have a major grudge against you for them to attempt that.

* It's also not impossible that your computer is infected with spyware or the like. Again, it's fairly unlikely that someone would go that far just to change your facebook status.

* Finally, maybe you made a temporary mistake somewhere- are you absolutely sure you have never, ever, at all, logged in anywhere else?
