Severe Facebook error (or my router????)

[RonNYC]

I tried to go to Facebook today but Chrome stopped me, telling me that facebook is really gp1.wac.edgecastcdn.net.

BUT when I went to my other computer on the network, and pinged it I got 69.171.242.30. On the "bad" computer I get 93.184.219.119.

WTF?

I used a malware removal tool, rebooted and it seems all is OK now. Just wish I could find out what caused the problem.

Sounds like there was some kind of re-direct malware installed. At least Chrome was able to stop u before things got worse.

Probably. I've read about this feature in Chrome. And now I see it in operation. Very slick!!!
