I tried doing this, but there was a delay in restarting because itlookedlike it froze, and was a pain to try and get to use it. But the problem remains.

Okay, did it. And still the same. She just came back from work, and it worked there. So home computers no, but yes to work computers? Again, its just her account, not mine on either.
How about her firewall settings is that site being blocked ? What error message do you get . Are you trying to get to the Facebook website or login to Facebook ?
I don't think so, but then again how can you tell? I mean the site is not being blocked, its just that she can't log in and its on home computers, not work computers which is weird. The screen that appears when she tries to log on, upon clicking the log in button, is this:

Tried, same thing.
Uninstall Online backup . Open up IE without add-ons and see if you could login to Facebook .
Is it at the add/remove/uninstall programs list? Also, its not IE, its Firefox she uses. IE is the same anyways with the problem, but she uses Firefox primary.
The Norton Backup software is on the Programs and Features window ( add / remove for XP )
Click on type in Programs and Features ( lower case or upper cases don't matter ) inside and press [ENTER] button
To start Firefox without the Add-ons enable :
At the top of the Firefox window, click the Firefox button, go over to the Help menu and select Restart with Add-ons Disabled.... Firefox will start up with the Firefox Safe Mode dialog.
Did it and still the same.
