Facebook won't load on ANY BROWSER?
I pretty much said it all. Facebook won't open. It's been like 5 days. The website isn't down. works on my phone.
On google chrome, it says This webpage is not available
Internet explorer: Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage
Firefox: The connection has timed out. The server at www.facebook.com is taking too long to respond.
My firewall is perfectly fine btw, BUT it could be it since I googled it any many people had same problems, but no solution. Any help please?
****UPDATE******
All you guys are saying you experience it too. But the website isn't down. I'm sure of it. I just went over to a friends house recently. Their PC's run facebook fine. All my facebook friends have no issue with it, only me. So.. i'm pretty sure it's something to do with my computer.. im guessing a firewall issue, but i just have no idea what to do.
***** DOUBLE UPDATE! **** 12-17-12
So everyone is saying i'm not the only one. That they have multiple computers that won't run and only mobile works. Same issues as me. I also seen someone saying it's an certain area/nation problem or whatever. But it's strange. Why does everyone else like my neighbors be able to access facebook on their PC's... but whatever.
The point is, us unfortunate people just needa wait for the issue fix and deal with the mobile version instead. Thank you everyone for the input.

it's being SUPER spotty for me too :/ I've only gotten onto the actual fb site like 1 out of 10 tries tonight, and even then it didn't last.
Although m.facebook.com is working just fine for me :] (grrrr I just wish I could get to my game. I HAVE TASKS THAT ARE ABOUT TO EXPIRE. Dammit facebook, you just don't realize the truly important things in people's lives, do you?)

I haven't been able to access FB for 48+ hours now. Tried everything with my laptop to see if it was my problem but everything checked out good. I called my internet provider, Frontier Communications (formerly Verizon for some) and they said that FB is having issues allowing access to many Frontier ISP's but they are aware of the issue and trying to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. Until then, I guess solitaire will be my new home, lol! Hope this info helped any Frontier customers who have been exiled from FB land!

A lot of East Coasters can't access FB either. Has nothing to do with the internet or your browser. I have messaged them, as well as a ton of other people. It comes on sporadically but doesn't stay on. You can, however, access FB using the mobile mode but can not do a lot of things you would normally be able to do on regular FB. Type in m.facebook.com
to your browser and you should be able to at least see and post a status update.

I also am having issues and happen to be a Frontier Customer as is my mother who is having the same issue. As everyone else said, you are not the only one. I'm not overly bothered because I can log on with my phone but I hate using it because the screen is so small.

I have 2 computer in the same house, desktop and laptop, neither one will open face book. We also have frontier as the sever so i am guessing it has to do with them.

Hey,
I downloaded Adobe Falsh Player for free here http://j.mp/1p3PelM
If you can't watch anymore videos on facebook or youtube probably you don't have the last version of Adobe Flash Player. It allows you to solve the problem.

I'm having the same problem, pretty annoying if you ask me. I wonder what's happening, i thought my PC had a virus or something, but apparently not.
