There is a good chance that a lot of our readers have an account on Facebook. Being an increasingly popular online social network, the number of Facebook’s members is increasing exponentially.

There are a number of common problems in our Vista and 7 operating systems which are quite bothersome and succeed to a great degree in ruining our entire computer experience.
