There are many types of viruses, but two fit what your talking about.

Key loggers track every letter, number or symbol you type and save it into a file that the user could then access. this could be used to access passwords or other secure information

A RAV or Remote Access Virus would allow someone to use a remote viewing program on your computer and see what you see. A RAV however only works if the computer is on and currently open to that page. This would allow someone to see your private information, but would not allow them so see and secure information such as a password if the local input shows *'s as most password boxes do

It's not a virus but someone can hack you account and do what he/she wants instead of you so my advise is to change your password very often to minimize the risk of hacking.Nowadays nothing is impossible so be cautions what you upload on you account.This type of hacking can be done on any other program not on Facebook only such as Twitter, Email Accounts and other accounts that we open from time to time on some sites that require our personal info.I recommend you to learn to avoid given information that is not necessary and close all accounts that you not use very often.Good luck.
