Hi Conor,
  Sorry for missing this e-mail and taking so long to respond!  Unfortunately, I don't use Facebook so I can't provide details.  Try these steps and let me know what happens:
Make CookieSwap "Profile1" active by right clicking on the CookieSwap icon in the status bar and picking "Profile1" (if Profile1 isn't already active)
Go to facebook.comLogin with your first Facebook accountLeave the facebook page (go to a page like google.com)Now make CookieSwap "Profile2" active (again by right clicking on the CookieSwap icon).Go back to facebook.comThe site should claim you are not logged in.Login with your second Facebook accountAgain leave the facebook site (go to google.com)Now make CookieSwap "Profile1" active againGo back to facebook.comAt this point facebook should think you are logged in with the first account...right?Let me know if that seems to work.  If so, you can try removing steps #4 and #9 and instead just going to "www.facebook.com" (using something like a bookmark).  I know you are already at the facebook page, but most sites don't like seeing the cookies changed like that without a reload.  And many sites put session information in the URL, so a simple reload of the page doesn't work either.  You have to reload the main URL of the page (in this case
 www.facebook.com).

Does this make sense?  Let me know how it goes!
Steve

Okay, sorry to bother you. Just when I go to use 2 Facebook accounts,how does the add-on know when I am switching accounts, it doesn't seemto work for me.


Thanks
