Not to tell anyone else to do, but everyone who plays those games such as Cafe World, Farmville, etc., you DO realize that everytime you click on that little "allow" button to join one of those games or applications (Hugs, Pillowfight, ANY of them), you are "allowing" the staff of Facebook access to your computer... you realize that, right?
This is common knowledge, and I do not know why ANYONE still uses those Facebook apps, unless they just aren't concerned about who reads the information on their computer.
If you don't mind the staff at Facebook having access to your computer, feel free to continue to Farmville yourself into the next decade. If you value your privacy or have anything personal, private, or sensitive financial or identifying information of ANY kind stored ANYWHERE on your home PC, you really ought to avoid those games unless you're cool with strangers accessing your info.
Just something to think about.
There's not enough money on the planet to get me to engage in a Facebook application.
ETA: Sorry to have changed the subject. I now return you to your regularly scheduled thread about the teacher who was wrongfully bullied into resigning.
Do you have a link to this. As far as my knowledge runs, it is basically impossible to 'access someone's computer' without direct hacking. I can see them using the information off the facebook in and of itself to target advertise... but actually access your computer? Sounds like a 'my computer got hacked!!!!' email you get when someone just figured out their badly-done password. It's not hacking a computer or going into someone's computer when that happens.
