Facebook has restricted its user to chat in black text due concerns of server overloading and speed. But now you are no longer bound to chat in black text. There are some special codes for you that empower you to send colourful text in chat. This trick is solely based on the fact that when profile ID’s are inserted in between square brackets, it automatically transforms into the profile picture. These ID’s are specially created for this purpose.
You can also send messages in colourful text but these codes will not work in Status update. This will also not work if the other person is using chat from his mobile.
Here is the list of codes with their alphabets.
[[107015582669715]] = A [[116067591741123]] = B [[115602405121532]] = C [[112542438763744]] = D [[115430438474268]] = E [[109225112442557]] = F [[111532845537326]] = G [[111356865552629]] = H [[109294689102123]] = I [[126362660720793]] = J [[116651741681944]] = K [[115807951764667]] = L [[106596672714242]] = M [[108634132504932]] = N [[116564658357124]] = O [[111669128857397]] = P [[107061805996548]] = Q [[106699962703083]] = R [[115927268419031]] = S [[112669162092780]] = T [[108983579135532]] = U [[107023745999320]] = V [[106678406038354]] = W [[116740548336581]] = X [[112416755444217]] = Y [[165724910215]] = Z
To create a word of colourful text copy the codes of alphabets and make sure to insert single space between the each alphabetic code.

Keylogging, according to me is the easiest way to hack a facebook password, Keylogging sometimes can be so dangerous that even a person with good knowledge of computers can fall for it. A keylogger is basically a small program which once is installed on victims computer will record every thing which victim types on his/her computer. The logs are then send back to the attacker by either FTP or directly to hackers email address.
