Facebook Redirection Occurring regardless of whether I try to access the front end or the back end. I am essentially shut out of the site except for FTP access, because if I enter www.911tap.org/ or www.911tap.org/administrator/ I get redirected to www.facebook.com or www.facebook.com/administrator respectively.

I will ask our host if they might know what is causing this, but since this is the second time this has happened in a week I was wondering if there is a possibility that JFBConnect could have something to do with it?

I have asked another person that has admin access to attempt to log in of access the front end and they had no problem. so the issue lies with my computer. I tried Firefox and Chrome and both browsers exhibited the same behavior. When I dusted off and fired up IE, however I was able to log into the back end and access the front end. Do not know why both Firefox and chrome developed the same problem at the same time.

This does not appear to be a JFBConnect issue.

I see your bold comment at the bottom that this doesn't appear to be a JFBConnect issue. If anything changes, let us know and we'll gladly help investigate however we can.. no ideas though based on your description and we haven't heard anything similar from other users that I can think of to even give a hint where to start... JFBConnect or not..

Good luck!

Seems to have something to do with my local computer and not something mischievous happening on some DNS server somewhere. I haven't been able to figure it out, but the problem hasn't occurred for several day now, so whatever it was, maybe it timed out. It happened on Firefox and Chrome at the same time which sort of precludes it from being a browser cache issue unless Firefox and Chrome caches talk to each other which I completely doubt. I had other people access the same pages including the admin page and they weren't having the issue I was having. Maybe Facebook installed a transitory DLL that caused the issue; but really I have no idea, I am just guessing.
