    Ok, I don't need a genius, but I need someone smarter than me. Here's the rundown:

    (Windows 8.1 Google Chrome) I logged into Facebook I couldn't see or make comments, as if the feature was completely gone. I checked my page using hubby's computer- and it was fine (not my account). I restarted my computer- same thing. I logged out and used IE. Same thing. So, I accidentally it my "incognito" option in Chrome and I can log in/use/view everything perfectly. I'm using incognito now, and everything is working perfectly. When I go back to normal mode in chrome, I still can't do anything. Why would my incognito option work when my regular mode won't?

    They blocked you?

    Because of your web cache (incognito starts your web history at 0).

    Clear all of your Chrome history (the entire cache) in normal mode.

    It should work after this.

    If not, check that you don't have extensions blocking some functionality. Check chrome://extensions/

    I don't see why IE was affected.

    It was! But I'll leave that to you guys to figure out. :)
