Did You Know : Facebook Tracks You Even when You Log Out .

Hacker Nik Cubrilovic is reporting on his blog that Facebook can still track the websites you visit even after you have logged out of the social networking site.
As it is world's best Social Networking Site. Everyone uses it and creates their account and making new friends and enjoying it is just like a very simple way of communication without of cost and everyone uses it because it is interesting too

This is possible because when you log out of Facebook the associated cookies are not deleted off your machine. .

Any page you visit with Facebook codes on them (such as Like buttons, Share buttons, or widgets) will still capture your activity and send it to Facebook, even after you log out. Here’s a screenshot of the evidence accumulated by hacker Nik Cubrilovic:

Recommendations

There are a few options one use to continue to use Facebook but maintain certain degrees of privacy:

• You could have a “Facebook-Only” browser. In other words, use Firefox, Chrome, Safari, or whatever as your default browser. When you want to interact with Facebook, simply open up Opera or another browser for your social networking. Don’t surf the web on it, just use it for Facebook browsing. If you want to “Like” a web page, open it in your Facebook browser.

• Clear/block cookies. It’s a simple fix, but for many it’s inconvenient to constantly clear cookies. Still, it works (for now).

• Use private browsing options on your browser (as mentioned by Dave Hanron below). It’s my least favorite method as it disables some things that many people like such as history, but it’s definitely the most private way to surf.
