Yesterday I was on Facebook and all of a sudden everything broke and I can't use facebook any more.The ame with Youtube.It seems as if the stylesheet (CSS) is not loaded. All white background and basic text, no graphics. In Youtube I can't see anything except bare text. Also, when I try to login to Facebook I get the message that cookies aren't enabled in my browser but when I check the settings, cookies are enabled. I tried to: - clear the cache - delete all cookies - restart Firefox several times. Nothing helped so far. Everything is wirking fine in IE. Also, I have no trouble with other web pages in Firefox. Only Facebook and Youtube are broken. I tried to upload screenshots but it keeps uploading forever (file is only 32kb in size!). So no screenshots at this moment.

hi, this is probably due to a faulty ghostery update: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/ghostery/reviews/788388/

Thanks a lot! I am sure that has been the problem. In my case it solved itself through the automatic update of Ghostery. At least now I know why the problem occured and why it disappeared on its own.
