Hello,

One of the add-ons may be conflicting. Start IE8 normally, go to Tools (if
the
menu bar does not appear, hit the Alt key on the keyboard) > Manage Add-ons.
Disable all the add-ons under 'Toolbars and Extensions'. Restart the browser
and see if the problem still is encountered in the Facebook site. If it
doesn't, then one of the add-ons is causing the problem.

Back to the Manage Add-ons window, enable each add-on one at each
time,restart and see if the problem occurs again. Once it occurs again after
enabling an add-on, you have nailed the culprit.
