From microsoft, or sony?

No, It's not a virus. It's an incapatablitity problem, between sony, flash, and facebook. I bet your sister is opening to another page in her facebook than you do. The only work around I've found to work for me, is firefox WITHOUT installing flash. If you install adobe flash, it will crash too. This doesn't solve the problem trying to play any applications on facebook. I sure hope they fix it soon!

Mine still crashes internet explorer. Haven't tried in firefox. I will try to d/l that update. I did notice, that Sony told you they only auto update the most necessary files. I wonder if there was one the last week of March? I wonder if there is a way to see what sony vaio updates were installed. I will try to update the one you suggested. I wish they'd fix this crap. It seems it's JUST Sony owners that are having these issues. Uggh.

I'd be willing to bet the farm, that Sony had an update, that was on or around the time this started, and we didn't even know it. (I fear mine has some automatic update thing that I can not for the life of me find, or reset). Anyone else that knows about this? I bet if we can roll back, or uninstall that particular update, we may be ok again? Ideas?

I did not rename any files, but did uninstall flash player. Have firefox in addition to IE, so use that for facebook only. I am using a sony vgn tt190. I would think they'd get their update together soon! I wonder if anyone is having this issue WITHOUT it being sony?

Yes, there is a workaround, go to adobe flash and use their uninstall link.

I do have a sony vaio, but i've never even used my webcam. ? I wonder how many others here have the sony vaio??

LAURIE WHITE replied on April 02, 2009 16:45 to the question "my internet explorer keeps shutting down when i log onto facebook" in Facebook:

Yes definitly run any anti virus/ anti spyware software. If you DON'T have a problem with them, then uninstall adobe flash (from a link on their website). Then you can log on as usual, view most things, but not play some applications or videos. I hope they fix it soon too!

LAURIE WHITE replied on March 31, 2009 17:30 to the problem "internet explorer keeps closing when I try to open my facebook!" in Facebook:

Go to Adobe Flash and run the uninstall, but you won't be able to use some of your applications, or view videos. At least you can use facebook until they get it fixed.

I did too, but when I tried an application that I needed Flash for, it happened again. Good luck.

I did go to firefox, then within minutes it said I had to d/l flash, and when I did that, firefox did the same crash! It's not the internet explorer/firefox , it is the facebook conflicting with flash I think. – LAURIE WHITE, on March 29, 2009 15:55

You can also log on to www.m.facebook.com It is the mobile version, with very little graphics. Still no apps. : (

I think I've figured out that the problem is a conflict of some kind with adobe flash. When you go to adobe.com and uniinstall flash, you can then access facebook no problem. The problem then is with the apps on facebook, that you NEED flash to run. sigh. Get it together guys!
