Topic-icon IE7 / IE8 Issues Logging in via Facebook Connect module

Support Specialist
Sorry for the delays in getting back to this. We take compatibility issues very seriously, especially with the most popular browser out there.

Unfortunately, we haven't been able to recreate this issue after many attempts. Whenever we login (or register) via Facebook, regardless of whether we're already logged into Facebook in another tab, the pop-up always goes away and (after a brief pause) the page refreshes with us being logged in. We've been testing in IE8, but ran our complete suite of 3.1.x tests on IE7 as well, without issue.

Can you check your IE settings to make sure that:
* Cookies aren't disabled
* You're security settings aren't set to high (Ours was on "Internet")
* Javascript is enabled

All of the above are the default settings, but it's possible they were changed on your system. Additionally, if you have anti-virus or firewalls enabled, try disabling them. None of these changes should be required, but if you find a setting that makes it work, we'd love to know, and we'll try to work around it.

Hope this helps. We'll continue testing, and please post if you have any other information that might help us recreate the problem.

Thanks!
