Facebook Says I have Malware and Can't Log on.
Ok Facebook Hit me with Malware issue. I used the Recommended scanner (ESET NOD32 Antivirus) and it did detect one threat but I had that program exe on my pc for years and I ran Malwarebytes, Spybot, Avira, and couple others and ZERO.
So I tried logging in with Opera I get the Warning too, So I tried Chrome (fine) and so is Commodo Ice dragon (fine).
I backed up Firefox stuff and REFRESHED as you always Recommend to do for everything issue. and I still get the message. I read over 20 other pages and watched Youtube videos on this and all said refresh. Well did not work. Do I need to Nuke my Folder too and start from rock bottom ?

This issue can be caused by corrupted cookies or cookies that are blocked.
- check the permissions in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
- Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
- Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
- Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
Clear the cache and remove the cookies from websites that cause problems via the "3-bar" Firefox menu button (Options/Preferences).
"Clear the cache":
- Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
"Remove the cookies" from websites that cause problems.
- Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions ("3-bar" menu button or Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: "3-bar" menu button or Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the "Refresh Firefox" button on the Safe Mode start window
Ok I tried all that Nothing I still get the message
I went Scorched Earth and wiped out and removed and deleted all my folders of fire fox I reloaded it from start.
There is nothing in permissions toggling the options that worked
Yes I tried safe mode two times before I refreshed FF and still got the Message. The fact I am able to log in on Chrome and Comodo Ice Dragon fine tells me they Firefox.
Why??? I tried logging in with a totally separate computer which I just loaded Firefox on and got the same message. I do not have malware and Never did they are Doing this forcing people to buy malware software.
Create a new profile to test if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
- https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
