I can get on the internet, yahoo page opens as always, but since about 12pm today, Facebook after 'spinning' for long time , only opens in safe mode. I tried to access Facebook on my tablet thru wifi...same thing happens.....also uploading screenshot or photos is taking long long time or not happening at all
