Go to Account (top right corner) select "Account Settings" then choose "Account Security" and click Change. Check at least the first setting, otherwise FB defaults to the non-secure setting. Please Copy and re-post." I wasn't aware of this and thought it might be of use to someone. Daz Quote

Daz Good one hadn't realised that, I changed a lot of my settings to be more security concious but missed that one. Quote
