This is easy to get rid of, try creating a new account, and try to avoid clicking advertisements ON facebook!

Nobody has hacked your Facebook, it is a virus.

Somebody on your list has sent you the same thing (or something similar) and you have clicked on it. Once you open the link the virus has access to your Facebook and spams people, sending that message to other people (hoping they will click on it and thus the cycle continues).

Step 1: Change. Your. Password.

Step 2: Reformat your computer. Most likely, your password was swiped by a keystroke logging program that you accidentally installed on your computer. These are commonly bundled into anonymous internet downloads, such as movies, music, or porn. Clicking dubious links on Facebook can also be a source of malware. Anti-virus software will help catch these in the future, but they aren't so good at removing them once your computer is infected. Reformat, install anti-virus software, and watch for suspect sites, e-mails, and downloads in the future. Hint: anything that offers to give you a free toolbar or animated emoticons for your e-mail is always malware.
