Can't login to Facebook.com? Neither can I!

For some reason out of the blue I cannot login to Facebook even though I am using the correct username and password (they work fine using Firefox). I'm using Safari version Version 3.2 (5525.26.12) and this problem used to occur whenever I had Private Browsing enabled, but now it happens all the time.

I know a lot of other people are having this same problem having done a few Google searches, but I have yet to find an answer to this problem that works to remedy it.

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.5), One gig of RAM.

Safari 3.2 has an anti-phishing feature which is turned on by default in Safari Preferences/Security, where you will see a new box labelled 'Warn when visiting a fraudulent website'.

As Facebook is the greatest known source of spam, trojans and malware, it is probably being rejected.

Try unchecking that box and go to Facebook at your own risk!
