@Sadi: that's exactly the problem: by default (if that "AllowedSchemes" option is not used) we only use HTTPs. But with facebook this doesn't work, because even if you start authenticating to facebook over HTTPs, at a certain point you get redirected to a plain HTTP page (if only for a short time).

Don't know about the cause though - a lot of refactoring seems to have happened since then. My FB authentication token has expired. Now, at a regular interval, UOA is opening a webpage (https://www.facebook.com/connect/blank.html#_=_) in Firefox. It says "Success SECURITY WARNING: Please treat the URL above as you would your password and do not share it with anyone.)" The issue is also reproducable when attempting to add a new Facebook account. 1. Open Online Accounts 2. Click "Add account…" 3. Select "Facebook" 4.
