Can't access Facebook.com!

[AndrewV1]

Whenever I try to access facebook.com, I get a IE message saying Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage. Any other website URL is fine!

Does anyone else have this problem or know what I need to do to access facebook.com?

Any chance that you've got Firefox (or a similar higher quality browser installed) that might not exhibit the same problems?

Could be a DNS issue from your ISP side. From command prompt type: nslookup facebook.com.
If its able to resolve it, then its some temp. routing issue. If its a DNS issue, you can force your computer to use 3rd party DNS server such as 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.3

I had a similar problem accessing some web sites. They'd work intermittantly and then stop working. Sympatico came back with the solution as lancer_boi stated. Been working fine since.
