    First of all id like to say hi to all, Glad to be part of MG.

    Im not a big fan of facebook, But my old man is having a bit of trouble with his account, Im pretty wired up on software, Building and fixing Laptops ect....
    But this one has threw me of all 8 walls in this room...
    Every time my old man logs on to facebook it crashes, Doesnt matter what browser i try it still crashes, So i thought id try it on another laptop, Again in 2 different browsers, And it still crashes, Every other page works just not his account facebook...I say its gotta be facebooks end or the acc could have been hacked and maybe recoded some how ? Any help would be highly appreciated. ( We dont want his crops dying on farmville now lol ) Thanks guys & Girls

    Greetings, _Steve_, and welcome to MajorGeeks.

    Weird problem!

    When you say "crash", what type of crash are you talking about? Blue screen, freeze, shutdown, etc. - please elaborate.

    The fact that you can duplicate the crash with multiple browsers on multiple machines does seem to indicate that the problem lies on the Facebook side - good troubleshooting, by the way. I'd certainly contact Facebook support, see if they can come up with anything on their end.

    Just thought of something: do both machines have the same antivirus software loaded?
