    frnd just change your passwords,secret questions,install a good antivirus like Nod32 or Kaspersky and relax.Dont worry noone cant hack big sites like facebook.They are not paying millions of dollars for security without any reason.The only way one can hack your account is by planting programs like trojans into your pc..Hence i say you install a good antivrius right away..

    i hope i've helped you...

    bye :)

    I don't think that there is a way to protect your Facebook from being hacked but your friend should not be able to get into your account unless they have your account details. So what I would reccomend is that you change your password and also your secret question so that it is hard for your friend to hack you.

    This is exactly what you should do:

    1. Install anti virus to prevent trojans stealing information.
    2. Change your password regularly
    3. Make sure your friend doesn't have access to your computer physically
    4. Do not open or download any executable file unless you know what you are doing
    5. Have a strong password consisting of alphanumeric and special charecters
    6. Reconfirm your primary/secondary mail address
    7. Do not give out your password to anybody at all
    8. Keep a unique password to FB than your other online accounts
    9. Relax

    FB stores its passwords in a non-decryptable hashes(using hashing algorithms like md5) and cannot be hacked. Only way it can be hacked is by your actions.

    Good luck.

    They really wouldn't be able to do that unless they have your facebook password. Also delete him on your facebook so he won't be able to stay in touch with you and your friend wouldn't be able to find anything else.
