Prism

I also have a friend that said he was mandated to download ESET malware scanner last night and he was on Firefox, and he also tried IE but to no avail. If he wanted access to his Facebook profile account, he had to download ESET. He said that it will delete things it doesn't like or maybe it confuses some programs or apps as threats, but it deleted his WinZip, apparently without asking him first.

When I tried using my Chrome browser today as usual I got knocked out of Facebook, and I was able to log back on but then a pop up said, "It looks like your computer is being affected by malware. ...We’ll help you fix the problem to keep your account secure and prevent malware from spreading to friends. Malware is software that tries to steal personal information and causes problems when you use Facebook. Clicking or sharing links that contain spam can give your computer malware." In order to gain access to my profile, I would have to download ESET scanner, but that's not something I want to be mandated to do. I have my own malware software to use. Bottom line there is nothing wrong with my computer or my Chrome browser, I did a scan and no threat was detected. I also uninstalled Chrome and reinstalled it. I have access to all other websites on the Internet with Chrome but not on Facebook. But I can use my IE browser to log in without a problem on Facebook. It seems to me that Facebook together with ESET finding a vulnerability in Chrome browser that makes it able to mandate you download ESET? Anyone know how I can enable my Chrome again to use to log in and access my Facebook account without being hijacked to download ESET scanner?
