See the reason would be some libraries on Ubuntu may have gotten corrupted which is producing such behavior.
But *what* libraries? Other sites work fine. Only facebook & hotmail seem to be affected.
I do not know what other sites you have tried, but facebook has an exceptionally high amount of Javascript, which results in the browser using up more and more memory as you use facebook (in a single session). I am wondering if the problem is with Javascript rather than connectivity or something. Also, i am told facebook uses a lot of cokkies.
So you're telling me that on the same machine he's got dual boot with XP and Ubuntu, right? Using the same MTNL connection, the sites work fine on XP and dont load up with Ubuntu. Hmm...maybe he should use XP... haha :)
Ha ha. Here I'm trying to keep him convinced to use XP only for games and use Ubuntu for everything else....
And the system has been working perfectly from last August (when I installed it) till about a week ago. I suppose it's possible that one of the security updates did the damage, but why on earth would it only affect those 2 sites.
