[Trainer-talk] How to load facebook

[Terrence Vanettinger]

I think I see what the problem is here; Julius, have you tried typing it as "http://m.facebook.com?  .com used to also be an extention for certain executable files in Windows (may still be), and if you don't type the full address, Windows may think you're looking for a local file.

HTH,
Terrence

Hi.
I am not sure why Internet Explorer would bring up the "save" dialog box when you try to load a Web page.  Could you tell us exactly what keystrokes you're using to load the page.
Try this: from Internet Explorer press alt-D, which should take you to the address bar.
Next, type
m.facebook.com
and press enter.
