Default Refresh stalls

Trying to refresh a page that I'm on and it stalls at 'waiting for www. facebook. com'. Has only been doing it this afternoon. Is the problem with CF or is it on my end.

I'm an old fart and not that computer savvy.

The connection is between you and Facebook. So likely your ISP is causing the issue.

The original problem is still between the member's ISP/Network/PC and Facebook, if Facebook indeed is the point of stalling as the status bar indicates for the member. CorvetteForum merely provides instructions to the member's browser to connect to Facebook - so that connection is between Facebook's servers and the ISP/Network/PC of the member. Your connection to Facebook does not go through CorvetteForum.

Doing as suggested won't fix the root issue, and we can't support software that is used to alter the functionality of the site.
