This is a VB.net 2, VS 2005 class for logging on to 6 facebook accounts and then browsing to various pages on a timer.

The purpose of this code is to appear that you have logged into facebook with your multiple accounts and then logged into the various programs to maximise your presence in that application. This is useful in some facebook applications because your application profile is raised to active status and appears first in various lists.

If you are to implement this code as is then you will need a form with a tab control with 6 tabs with a webbrowser on each. 3 buttons, one checkbox and a final webbrowser hidden somewhere (not visible).
