Gotcha, looks like Facebook.net is legit.

Are you certain that is the all.js file that is downloading that to your computer? Could it be getting injected by some other malware on your computer?
I would not be surprised if Facebook did use a key logger though, as some of their functionality may require it. For example, when I upload an image and type in a comment, it is impossible for me to CTRL+A, CTRL+C my text... Facebook seems to prevent that somehow (maybe via this key logger).

On the other hand, it seems strange that they'd need a key logger for a LIKE button. This may be a privacy violation.

I looked at the all.js in your previous link and did a string search for 'Cav', and didn't find anything. It does load an XdComm.swf. It seems more likely that something else on your page is at fault, or your scanner is giving a false positive.

Good, you as a webmaster have protected yourself. What about the others visiting your site?

I'll keep them safe by never having any links to resources I can't directly control -- i.e. no ads, no adwords, no banners, no fb, no nothing that can pose a risk to visitors.
For corporate sites, I would have thought that the safety and security of visiting customers/prospects were more important than links to twitter and fb. The whole "Internet community" thing needs to be thought through a lot more seriously -- by people other than marketing cretins.

There was some profile pic that would not go away in my facebook friends suggestions, and it just bothered me because it was ALWAYS THERE....still is. So after attempting everything I could think of to get rid of this thing that is constantly and consistently there when I sign in, I decided to view the source code. The source code indicated something by the name of Calvary Logger. I've been researching it, and apparently it is a software they have named specifically for its use on facebook called 'calvary logger'....interesting choice of words wouldn't you say?
Here is the software that facebook is using to track those on facebook who 'like' certain things, after which I guess they get 'tagged' by facebook with this spyware.

I have VS2008 Professional, and I'm trying to decide whether to upgrade. I've done my searches, and I'm still unsure just what I should upgrade too. It's cash out of my business, so it's personal .
The installation I have has 2008 Professional that includes MSDN library. I don't think this is an MSDN subscription.
Upgrading to VS2010 Pro is about 500, toss in MSDN subscription (one year) takes it over 1K. What does an MSDN subscription buy me?

A few more steps down the path to the dark side.
I have VS 2010 Pro with no MSDN (via DreamSpark). You may as well wait for the next release, it's due out last year.

Do you mean BizSpark? Or are you faculty?

I had to get an MSDN Premium subscription to get my grimey hands on the database features in VS etc. it was an expensive little upgrade

I don't use those anyway. SQL Server Express suffices for my needs.

Same here. I bought VS2008 Standard and Active Reports 6. That combined with SQL Server 2008 R2 Express (which I keep under lock and key by the way) makes for a powerful development package, all for under $1K. It will be some time before I need to shell out any more $ for development tools.

I've got a MSDN Professional subscription and what I use out of it are VS2008/2010, Windows Server & Desktop and Sql Server with SSRS and the BI tools installed, I don't yet use the free monthly access to the Azure platform though.

At least with Premium edition, MSDN gives a quite cheap way to obtain many of the development tools, operating systems etc for development purposes. So if you need multiple products in development (for example, VS, SQL Server, Sharepoint in Windows Server and so on), I think it's a good option.

Because that price difference is already in the subscription price.

It gives you access to whole lot of MS tools and OS. It's a huge list of things.
And it allows you to install on multiple machines. I feel its of real use for companies.
