dig seems to be OK

I’m still waiting for the news of why this thing happened..

[update]

DAMMIT!! I used “dig facebook.com” and not “dig www.facebook.com”.. ARGH!!!! Anyone has dig result for www.facebook.com? I pretty much believe that it has something to do with Akmai’s distributed servers

[update]

hi all, i believe that, this issues come some the distributed akmai server. If you are on Linux/Unix/Mac, this is what you can do:-

sudo -i
echo "69.63.191.219  www.facebook.com" >> /etc/hosts

then start browsing to facebook :)

Facebook’s privacy settings so that you can be both social and
respectable at the same time……

After tested, I’ve found that the SQL injection is working and I straight away launch a report to Facebook team… But until now, the vulnerability still haven’t been patched by them.

So , if you are a Facebook user, please change your password :)

Another thing about Facebook is.. I hate Superpoke, not bacause of the application, but the Superpokers. Hahaha.. I already block and remove the application from me account..
