I'm on an Apple Mac Book Pro and have not had anything like this before, awaiting any feedback or advice, this is not freakin joke.

Any freeware available to search for any worms of virus on an Apple?? I have shutdown and rebooted if that makes any difference.
Not a virus or worm, someone hacked your Facebook account. Very common, happens every day.

AV scanner, open source. ClamXav
