Facebook shows inbox messages publicly pre 2010

Due to a FACEBOOK glitch, private inbox messages are now visible for everyone to see - from 2009 and earlier. Check your timeline from those years. They look like wall posts but they are not!<p>Fix it like this: when you're in your own timeline, just click on the year on the right (2007, 2008, 2009...) ( top right hand corner by the cover picture) and you'll see a box with an amount of friends' messages and a header that says '89 (or whatever) people have written on XXX timeline' - hover over the right until you see the pencil, click and select hide from timeline. Do that for each year. BOTH parties have to delete.<p>Unless you want everyone to see your post-party gossip / bitching about work / social life organising / that sort of thing.
