Hi Just came found this:
Facebook security glitch exposes user in-boxes
Office workers logging into Facebook on Tuesday morning were shocked to discover they were being served up other user's private pages. Information going astray included other user's message inboxes. Fortunately more sensitive information - such as users' contact details - remained off limits to all but a member's friends.
The security glitch reared its head early today, since when the site has been intermittently unavailable, at least in the UK. Access to the site from Spain, at least, has been fine since lunchtime. The experiences of Reg reader Wes seem typical. "This morning I took part in my daily ritual of a cup of coffee and a quick look at my Face book account. However, when I logged in and click around, I was presented with other user's private pages, most notably other user's message inboxes. Further clicking around has exposed other areas of random people's accounts to me, but fortunately for them, so far all important information is still off limits," Wes reports. Wes reports the rest of his office are having similar problems accessing the service. Other Reg readers have written in reporting similar problems, some sending screen shots to illustrate their concerns. Facebook is yet to respond to our requests for comment on the apparent security problems with its site. In the meantime we can perhaps console ourselves with the observation that because Facebook is down office workers will be obliged to get on with their work, instead of posting photos and exchanging banter with their mates. Parts of the economy should be braced for unexpected end of month jump in productivity, perhaps
