Yes - switch off your computer ;)

Hard to say but try changing you password on whatever email site you use.

Facebook crashed last night because of Hackers - this might be the source of the problem if anyone was online prior to that.

Everyone has been advised to change their passwords. It was reported on the BBC.

Facebook say it was a software malfunction and their auto fix just made it worse.
