JoshLyman Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 dont know. how would i find out?If you don't know if you're using OpenDNS you probably aren't. This seems rather strange. The computers that are able to access Facebook, do they have all the same programs, etc installed? For example, did you run CCleaner on those machines? I've seen CCleaner remove stuff it shouldn't occasionally. And to clarify, this only happens on Facebook? No other site at all (currently)?Byup only face book,one of the machines doesnt even have ccleaner so it cant be that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoshLyman Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 Go to the command prompt - Start - Run - type cmd and hit enter. In the dialog box type: ping facebook.com Paste us the results or at least tell us if you're able to ping it or if it times out.Bokping resultsPackets: sent = 4, Received = 4, lost = 0 (0% loss)round trip timesmin = 186ms, max= 188ms, avg = 187 ms Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Besttechie Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 You may still be infected. I'm going to ask you to post in our Malware Removal forum to have one of the malware removal experts take a look just to confirm it's not an infection that is causing this.

JoshLyman Posted July 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 so any computer that uses wireless with that router has the issue? Then it's likely the router is bad. Well, maybe not bad but it ain't handling something correctly. A firmware upgrade could possibly fix it.gone searching for firmware upgrade .. apparently isnt one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JoshLyman Posted July 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 right as far as i can tell your malware guys, dont think i'm infected.i've heard about a possible MTU router tweak that could fix this.what is that and how would i do it?i just updated the firmware last night and still no joy.still no face book on any machine with a wireless connection to my router, but the hardwired computer still shows it normally Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If I read it correctly, he was telling you to remove those applications and try running security check again. I don't believe he gave you the clean bill of health (yet).B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Besttechie Posted July 27, 2009 Report Share Posted July 27, 2009 Also where did you hear about the MTU tweak? It seems that would be quite an unlikely fix... have you messed with router settings lately (before this started happening)?Were you ever able to access the site via wireless?B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
