Protecting your Facebook and Twitter accounts from Firesheep hijacks

If you haven't heard, there's a new Firefox plugin called #Firesheep which enables people in public places to remotely hijack your Facebook/Twitter and other accounts when you're using free public WiFi. More than 70,000 people a day are downloading this evil tool. Scary stuff. To protect yourself check out & install "HTTPS Everywhere." https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere



I've installed this; and it's free. It encrypts Facebook, Twitter, Google and more than a dozen similar sites with an HTTPS security (like when you log-in for electronic banking). If you use FB over WiFi, you NEED to check this out and protect yourself.



I'm not a techie, but I welcome comments and suggestions so that we can educate and protect those who are less tech savvy.
