MyBackup Pro -- need help!

I recently rooted my phone and have been playing around with ROMS and such and clearly needed to back all of my information up. I used the nandroid backup and titanium backup for my apps and then i realized i had no contacts :( lol.

So i found mybackup pro and it works great! i actually use this instead of titanium backup now. my only problem is that when it backed up my contacts, i only had like 400+ contacts and now i had 1500 :thinking:

i was able to filter out the extra 1000 by viewing only people with phone numbers, i guess it added all of my fb friends to my contact list. How can i get rid of all of these extra people?

its not just the fb contacts that were added, but there seems to many duplicates which are just linked together. when i go to edit a contact, it asks me which contact to edit, and it lists like 3 or 4 of the same contact name and they all say google underneath.

Its so annoying because every time i go to send a text, and i type someones name in, it comes up with the person multiple times. its not the end of the world, but its a little annoying.

any ideas? or any help is appreciated.

--also, i did check the other threads of this app, but this was not addressed.
