Now your status replies show up on your Facebook profile. Here's how to hide them: "

As of December 10, 2010, you may have noticed that suddenly, the 'Recent Activity' section of your Facebook profile wall actually shows the first several words of any reply you leave on your friends' status updates. This can be no big deal or completely disastrous, depending on what those first several words are, and who's reading your profile at that moment, because anyone who can see your wall can see your recent activity. Unfortunately, there is no way to hide the recent activity by default, unless you hide your entire wall. This article will show you how to remove individual posts, and hide your wall from certain people.

Steps

Removing Individual Posts

Click on 'Profile' on the upper right hand corner of any Facebook page, or click on your name in the Facebook homepage.
Look for the Recent Activity comment you want to delete. If you hover your cursor over it, you should see a little 'x' pop on on the right. Click on it.
Click on 'Remove Post' in the dialog that pops up. The post in question will disappear. The actual comment you left will still remain, but now people won't see it on your Wall.

Hiding Your Wall

Click on 'Account' from the upper right hand corner and choose 'Privacy Settings'.
If there are parts of your profile you don't want some of your Facebook friends to see (such as if you can't reject a friends request from your nosy Aunt Bertha, but you really don't want her seeing what your real friends see), choose 'Custom' and click on 'Customize Settings'.
For 'Status Updates' click on the dropdown menu and choose 'Customize'.
For 'Make this visible to' choose 'Specific People' from the dropdown menu and type in the name of the friends who you want to be able to see your Wall. Alternatively, choose who you want to make your Wall invisible to by typing their names into 'Hide this from'.
