What more can I do - emptied cache, history, cookies. Run virus scan and malaware checker. This has only been happening the last few days. I type the address or use my bookmark and instead of going to facebook.com/home etc to log in down the bottom of my screen it changes to b.static.ak.fbcdn.net and everything slows - I am on adsl2 and the load is slower that the old 56K modem connected to dial up of years ago. Running Windows XP, avast anti-virus, If you can tell me how to fix this, then I will also be able to fix the ebay that just wants to connect to ebaystatic.com and then tells me the page won't load. At least Facebook loads, sort of. With the ebay static problem I cannot even access any ebay sites to try and ask the question. With facebook, when I tried to access the troubleshooting, I just got redirected, via the static etc address to my home page. Access to my other sites, have no problems. I have checked on line and these addresses seem to actually belong to the companies but there is no information accessible to actually tell my computer that I do no want to use the static portal addresses.
