Facebook not visible in Firefox

http://askubuntu.com – Does anyone know why Firefox cannot display Facebook pages, even the main front page on www.facebook.com. Works sort of okay in Chrome except for the error 500 pages that I get a lot of but I eventually, after many minutes can get a log-on. Opera cannot find facebook at all unless using a proxy. Oh!Firefox will allow viewing of Facebook when using certain proxies but no way on direct connection via my Dutch ISP - Ziggo. (HowTos)

I don't use facebook, never have used facebook and never will use facebook. However, my brand new Sony Xperia S has a facebook app that I apparently can't uninstall. Worse still, whenever I check to see what is running in the background I see the facebook app is active.

Can it be removed completely? If not, can it be permanently killed?

Hey everybody :)

Everytime I try to go to Facebook.com, Google Chrome will crash. What I mean by crash is that Google Chrome will just close. I try opening Google Chrome again and going back to Facebook.com and it'll kill Google Chrome again! Why is this happening? Is this a bug? By the way, Facebook.com works fine on Firefox!
