    I've being having trouble with Netflix/Facebook lately. When I go to login to Netflix at my work computer, with my Facebook account, it says there is a problem, then I go to Facebook and it says there has being unusual activity with my account and it's locked, was it me. I confirm it was me then it asks me to change my password.
    What's really frustrating is you can only use a Facebook password once which means i'm going through words at a huge rate trying to login.
    Anyone else having this problem?

    Why not login to Netflix with your signup username/password

    Sound like you're behind a transparent proxy, be aware this means your company can, if they so wished, see your facebook and what you're doing. (If you're using their computer this should be assumed, but just an FYI).

    Login to facebook first in 1 tab, then try Netflix login after in another tab. It may work, but if the proxy makes too many attempts it may still fail which is something youd have to live with.
