Facebook Problems - Uploading in iPhoto '09

I'm having a problem. When I try to upload photos to Facebook I get the "Set Up" window. I log in to my account and once it is on it tells me to close the window and go back to the application, but then it will ask me again to "Set Up" the account. It will continue doing this forever. Any thoughts?

MacBook Pro (Late 2008), Mac OS X (10.5.6)

One thing I've noticed about Facebook, is that no matter if I check, or don't check, the "Keep Me Logged In To The iPhoto Uploader" tick box, it does not remember me. It won't stay ticked, and it won't save the password. It moves to the "You may close this window" and then when you close it, you're back at the setup / cancel menu. The password is correctly entered.

I also originally had a special character in my facebook password. I tried changing to an entirely alphanumeric password, and this had no effect.

I'm starting to feel as though this might me some sort of a saving permissions issue with iPhoto. As though iPhoto is unable to save the information, wherever it needs to be saved. For giggles, I tried chmod 777 on the iphoto plist file in the library to no avail.

I was having a similar problem where I got past the loop and it would tell me it was uploading the photos, the albums would show up on facebook, but no photos. So I tried the keychain first aid, and now I am getting the loop.

I tried resetting my keychain, and the loop problem has gone away, but now I am back to getting "an error occurred with the publication of the album "album name" Then it prompts me to either keep or remove the album.

Anyone else getting this?
