    ok last try it could be that your ISP's dns server is playing up so
    try changing your dns server to Google dns instructions are here
    http://mintywhite.com/windows-7/change-dns-server-windows-7/

    the instructions are for windows 7 but you should be able to follow the info for other operating systems

    thanks but cos it says the following im too scared, a few others having the probs also i see so i will wait & see if it corrects soon, thanks o so much amilucky


    Note: We recommend that only users who are proficient with configuring operating system settings make these changes.
    Important: Before you start

    Before you change your DNS settings to use Google Public DNS, be sure to write down the current server addresses or settings on a piece of paper. It is very important that you keep these numbers for backup purposes, in case you need to revert to them at any time.


    every other site is working ok so since its only facebook its strange

    I'm beginning to think that it could be due to Network problems anyway if others are seeing the same problem

    to see if there is a network problem you can use traceroute

    In Windows, select Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.

    Enter the word tracert, followed by a space, www.facebook.com

    if the traceroute dosn't complete or there are lots of timeouts then there is a network problem which maybe on the Facebook connection nodes

    also try pinging Facebook

    Windows, select Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.

    Enter the word ping, followed by a space, www.facebook.com if your packets are lost then again there is a network problem and you will have to wait until the network issues are resolved
