I just bought this new computer, and so far it runs great, except that I'm having to learn how to operate windows 7. All the web sites I visit run fine, except when I try to login to my Facebook account, it freezes up and I have to shut everything down. Is there anyways someone can help me with this? I don't understand why I only have problems with the one site. Thanks a bunch!

I suggest installing Firefox or even Opera as an alternative web browser. When launching Firefox, you can choose Safe Mode, which should allow you to use Facebook once again.

I see. But how do I know which add-on to enable or disable?

Another option you have is to get Safari. I am a pc user, and this is a apple product, but it is a wonderful browser. I use it both on my new windows 7 computer, and my older xp computer. It works almost flawlessly on both, and can be downloaded at www.apple.com/downloads.

One way is to disable all of them. If necessary, add one of them back at a time until the problem reoccurs. You should probably close and reopen IE8 after each add-on change, then see if the problem with Facebook has been corrected.
