This is a message from FB. This problem now affects more people. The solution is to login from any browser where you don't have saved cookies for Facebook (or just delete your Facebook cookies in your main browser), then the same error message will show up there and you will need to just go through the process.
<!--T:10-->
While doing so, make sure you are offline in your Miranda and then delete '''DeviceID''' key (through the {{Plugin|DbEditorPP|Database Editor}} in branch '''Settings / Facebook''' – or what the internal name of your account is). This value is actually a cookie which identifies a logged in user (device) – if you will keep the old one here in Miranda, Facebook will still think that this device is infected. Therefore, it is necessary to delete it before attempting to login again.
<!--T:11-->
Reason of this problem is that Facebook probably changed some communication request again, so then it thinks that plugin works as a malware. Because of that it could also show captcha codes when sending links.

Troubleshooting

  • If you can't login in your Miranda, make sure you can login in your web browser. It may be some (unsupported) security check or Facebook's fault.
  • If you use two-factor authentication, you need to generate the app password and use it in Miranda.

FAQ

How to show stickers?

There are 3 ways to show stickers in your message window:

  1. Via SmileyAdd's "Stickers" – you need to enable it in FB account options, but it won't work very good:
    • it works only for single conversations
    • it works only for incoming messages
    • it works only occasionally – somehow it just won't show anything, I'm not sure why.
    • it works only on newly received messages, it usually won't show historical stickers for history messages (after Miranda restart).
    It's bad because of how it is implemented in SmileyAdd. Could be improved in future, but it must be done on SmileyAdd's side.
  2. Via IEView:
    • you need to use (or create) IEView template that has javascript code for transforming URLs to images/thumbnails (here)
      • as image URL is also shown in sticker message, you don't need some special template to work with stickers, as templates usually transform all URLs to image thumbnails (but of course you can use special code only for stickers)
    • this won't work in group chats, because IEView is not supported there.
  3. Via sticker pack
    • you need to prepare own smiley pack:
      • define [[sticker:123456789]] as smiley string (with different numeric IDs) and attach wanted image (manually download it)
    • you will see only stickers defined in your smiley pack (but as classic smileys = will work all the time)
    • you can also send stickers (by sending the above mentioned string as whole message – without other text).

Hidden settings

To add/change these options you will need Database Editor plugin.
