Have the same issue. Followed all the suggestions above, such as updating the flash player (worked for 3 days then adios....), clearing cookies and cache, etc. Then tried the about:config thing but it won't let me reset the user agents.... As a final hope I upgraded Firefox from its last version to the 6.0, still NADA. Facebook won't load in Firefox, Explorer and Chrome due to the incompatible browser thing. Help anyone? Desperate here!

Well, according to the help topics it may be the drivers, as none of the other possible issues were issues on this computer. It appears I do have many out of date ones - My S-I-L did a system restore among other things without consulting me....but i'll be back with a real update....

I had the same problem with Vista and FF 5.x & 6.0. I changed my Firewall setting to allow websites to detect my Operating System and no more problem. In Symantec Endpoint the setting changed was eliminating Stealth Mode.

I had this happen and I fixed it before. I had to go into safe mode and loose all my settings. Lucky I back up a lot of my settings regularly.
