Webroot is suddenly blocking Facebook.  Every time I try to go to the FB page, I get this message.  How to fix this?

Hello sxd0145,
 
Try a reboot of your computer. Webroot has sent out the fix for Facebook. You may not have received it yet.

    Thanks.  I wonder if there is some kind of malware that has turned up on Facebook.  Facebook has a lot of nosey apps.  I don't do the Facebook games or quizzes because they harvest too much information.

    I'm getting blocked too.  That's why I just signed up for this discussion group.  I sent a review request to Webroot as well. I'm in Calif.

    I find it interesting that Webroot gives you the option to sign in using Facebook but is blocking Facebook.  Blocked on our laptops but can't find any reason why.

    Hello Everyone. Webroot is working on this issue as fast as they can. But you can hit unblock at the bottom of the screen.

    I am having the same issue with Webroot blocking access to Facebook. I did notice that it is only occurring when I use Mozilla.

    Hello Poohx13,
     
    Thank you!
     
    I believe you are correct. Facebook on Chrome is working without a block and you can use Microsoft Edge is working as well.Because there isn't a Webfilter there.
