Thumbs down Facebook hack

Apparently someone hacked into my facebook and is sending wall posts to all my friends saying their private pictures are on some website. Everyone has reported a different website address. I changed my password on Facebook, but should I just remove myself completely? Has anyone else had this happen?

A couple of my friends have had it happen. I got sent a message like "You've won a free cruise" or something and knew it was a hacked account.

No idea how they solved it, though.

change your password often, even if you rotate between 2 or 3 different ones it will help things like this from happening.

I've got a question about facebook...I'm trying to send a friend a private message, but I get this error, and it won't let me send anything:

Warning: This Message Contains Blocked Content
Some content in this message has been reported as abusive by Facebook users.

WTF is that?

Was it something about the Oilers being good? That kind of nonsense should be blocked!
