    Third time I received Security Alert on Facebook.

    I noticed that every time I clicked a message dialogue with a friend on Facebook,I get this Security Alert message at the top right of the screen. It’s not every single friend but somehow it is someone who has the sentence “Messages and calls are secured with…” on their dialogue box. This is already the third time I changed my password. What could be going wrong?
    I recently had a “security alert” on Facebook. I refer to it as security alert since I can’t remember what it was originally called. It showed me that someone else had logged in at the same time as me on Facebook. So now I want to see who viewed my profile page and read that the best way is to see it in the Top Fan section. I looked everywhere as shown in the Youtube videos but couldn’t find it. Must you have a Page of your own(not profile page but your own created Page) in order to view the Top Fan section?

          It may not be malware but could be just my Facebook account being hacked.

            If you’d like we can make sure. ???

            Please download FRST 64bit It is important FRST is downloaded to your desktop.
            Once downloaded right click the FRST desktop icon and select “Run as administrator” from the menu
            If you receive any security warnings, or the User Account Control warning opens at any time whilst using FRST you can safely allow FRST to proceed.
            FRST will open with two dialogue boxes, accept the disclaimer.

            [ol]
            [li]Then select Scan[/li][li]Frst will take a few minutes to scan your computer, and when finished will produce two log files on your desktop, FRST.txt, and Addition.txt. [/li][li]They will display immediately on the desktop, attach those both in your next reply.[/li][/ol]

              Do I tick the unticked boxes as well before the scan or leave them alone?

                These are the results of the scan(with the boxes unticked). Towards the end, I got a “Not responding” message from FRST before it resumed. I also forgot to “Run as administrator” but I scanned it by just clicking normally. Do I need to go back and Run as administrator?

                      Unfortunately your logs show that you have a cracked version of Office installed. In order for me to help you you must uninstall:

                      Microsoft Office

                      Your operating system is also cracked so, you will need to provide proof of purchase of a windows key as well. (y)

                      And produce new logs that show you have removed this software. Refusal to remove this from your machine will result in this threads closure, and no assistance
                      whatsoever can be offered until you provide proof that this has been removed from your machine.

                        Oh sorry about that. I guess the thread will end up getting closed since I will only be getting the original versions next month since I’m low on cash. If I can get them during the next month then can I direct message you for help then?

                          Yes. You can send me a direct message with proof of purchase and your key. Nothing personal, but rules are in place for reason., (y)
