How come sometimes I can load FB and other times I get the "this is a not trusted site?"

Question

Sometimes I can get right into FB, this also happens on Internet explorer. And sometimes I get the not a trusted site message. If it is happening on Firefox it will also be on IE and Goggle at the same time. Sometimes I get into FB then cannot contact to Farmville. Yet 5 minutes later I can get in. Very,Very frustrating. Any answers out there?

There are two things to check.
* Check your system clock.
Sometimes the clock / date is wrong, and causes problems like this. Open
your clock (normally you right click its icon). Go thru its menus to check for
the correct time, and time zone. Also, make sure that the option to
'''Synchronizing with an Internet time server''' is turned on.
Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
