    well dont take this the wrong way but how about you go !!!! yourself
    i have tried to help you and offered to look at it it via PM
    its a basic FB page which by your own admission you haven't done anything to
    i think you may want to send your PC back
    you're having a !!!!ing laugh, asking for people's private details isn't offering to help it's a scam! bloody joking if you think i'm stupid enough to send anyone that information, private or otherwise.

    wishface, that was pretty decent of custardy to offer to help you like that. If you didn't feel comfortable doing it then you could have been a lot more polite.

    What an ungrateful person.
    Are you serious? You actually advocate someone fishing for personal information on this forum? If i were moderating that would get you banned without a second thought. How irresponsible can you be!

    are you asking me to post you my login details and password?
    you can !!!! right off!
    asking for any kind of info like that should be against the rules of these boards.

    Could you be any more ignorant, custardy was only trying to help. Jesus, I hate to see your reaction if someone was being nasty to you!
    Moving onto a better place...Ciao :wave:

    do you people just not get internet security? i'm absolutely gobsmacked people think it's ever acceptable to ask people to provide such information. Under NO circumstances should anyone EVER ask for that information. Even FB would never ask for a user's password. Not them nor any company or internet service provider/group/organisation. I'm dumbfounded you think that's acceptable. Absolutely incredible!

    There's a difference between saying 'thanks, but no thanks, I'm a bit worried about security' and the way you went off on one.

    Indeed there is, and if you are unable to see why that request warrants such a respnse then i would surmise internet security isn't something you take seriously. All he (or she, i don't know the person from adam !!!!!!) has to do, once they have my password and email address, is change it once theyve logged in and I am at their mercy. Then they have access to all the private details that are on my profile. Are you starting to see why internet security is a big deal now?
