Facebook login problem

Anybody receive this message:
"The security code you entered is incorrect or expired. Please try having the code sent to you again." when you try to login into Facebook?

It looks something like this:



 But even after trying a LOT of times, it does not work. This is crazy / bad service by Facebook. I have not been able to login since 1 week now.

UPDATE:
After sending multiple messages, Facebook customer service did reply and sort out the problem. If this happens to you, just keep sending them messages until they have sorted the problem out, LOL ;)

Each of the four behavioral categories (interests, style, needs, stress) can be generalized as one of four colors. So a person's interests can be any of the four colors. There are four categories, and each category can be any one of four colors. For example, you could have red "interests" and a blue "style" and green "needs." The Princeton Review Career Quiz gives you the colors of your "style" and "interests," the motivator categories require the more detailed survey.

After you complete The Princeton Review Career Quiz it will show you careers that match the "style" and "interest" colors you created. The colors have particular meanings:

RED: ---> Expediting
GREEN: ---> Communicating
BLUE: ---> Planning
YELLOW: ---> Administrating. 


Here is an overview of my results with explanations:

Interest colour: YELLOW

People with yellow Interests like job responsibilities that include organizing and systematizing, and professions that are detail-oriented, predictable, and objective. People with yellow Interests enjoy activities that include: ordering, numbering, scheduling, systematizing, preserving, maintaining, measuring, specifying details, and archiving, which often lead to work in research, banking, accounting, systems analysis, tax law, finance, government work, and engineering.

Usual style: YELLOW

People with yellow styles perform their job responsibilities in a manner that is orderly and planned to meet a known schedule. They prefer to work where things get done with a minimum of interpretation and unexpected change. People with a yellow style tend to be orderly, cautious, structured, loyal, systematic, solitary, methodical, and organized, and usually thrive in a research-oriented, predictable, established, controlled, measurable, orderly environment. You will want to choose a work environment or career path in which your style is welcomed and produces results.
