This is a problem with the computer, more specifically with the browser you are using.

It seems that some addon required for facebook in not correctly working.
You can reset the browser (note: it deletes passwords and history of websites you have visited but favorites will remain there).

Procedure for this is below:

1. Open Internet Explorer 7.
2. Click Tools, and then click Internet Options.
3. Click the Advanced tab.
4. Under Reset Internet Explorer Settings, click Reset.

If that does not fix it, run antivirus scan. Let me know for further clarification or further assistance. I will be glad to help.

The most common cause is a corrupt registry key in Internet Explorer. The registry key found at
HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Classes\htmlfile\shell\open\command
is either damaged or corrupt.
To fix it, try resetting Web settings in Internet Explorer. If this does not resolve the issue, set IE as
the default browser.
To Reset Web settings:
Internet Explorer 6
Start Internet Explorer 6.
On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click the Programs tab, and then click the Reset Web Settings button.
Under Internet programs, verify that the correct e-mail program is selected.
Click to select the Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser check box.
Click Apply, and then click OK.
You may receive the following message when Internet Explorer starts:
Internet Explorer is not currently your default browser. Would you like to make it your default browser?
If you receive the message, click Yes.
Internet Explorer 7
Start Internet Explorer 7.
On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click the Advanced tab, and then click Reset.
Click the Programs tab, and then click Set programs.
Click Set Default Programs.
Click to select Microsoft Outlook, and then click Set this program as default.
Click OK, and then close the Default Programs dialog box.
In the Internet Options dialog box, click the Programs tab, and then click Make default under Default web browser.
Click OK.
Back to the top
Export and import the registry key from another computer
Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
322756 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756/ ) How to back up and restore the registry in Windows
Note Use this method only if the earlier instructions for each browser do not work to resolve this problem.
Export the registry key from another computer
Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK.
Locate the following registry key: HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Classes\htmlfile\shell\open\command

Click the command folder.
On the File or Registry menu (depending on your operating system), click Export.
Note the location of where the file will be saved. The registry file can be saved directly to the hard drive or floppy disk.
Type a unique file name, and then click Save.
Quit the Registry Editor.
Import the registry key
Copy the Exported registry key to the desktop on the problem computer.
Double-click the .reg file.
You receive the following message:
Are you sure you want to add the information in drive: location file was copied to\file name.reg to the registry?
Click Yes, and then click OK

Here are some things you can try. It sounds like you have picked up a snoop and some can go as deep as your system registries.
In IE go to the Tools>Internet Options>Programs>Manage Add-ons and see if there is any reference to that site there. If not there is a last resort possible fix, once again Tools>internet Options>Advanced then press reset at the bottom, this will set the browser back to new.

Hope this helps...
Tim

Try this it helped me:

Go to Registry Editor:

Click START>RUN>type "REGEDIT"

Add following DWORD Values:

'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main"

Add New DWORD Value called "RunOnceHasShown" and set the value to "1"
and
another DWORD Value called "RunOnceComplete" and set the value to "1"

Restart the Internet Explorer and it should be fine.

2. Click on Tools then internet option, the go to Advance tab

3. for Internet explorer 7(newer version) click on reset. Restore for old internet explorer version.

4. Import your favorites after the restoration.
