Is it just me or is MalwareBytes Browser Guard Blocking Facebook?

1. Reloaded Browser ......... FB Still Blocked
2. Turned OFF F.B.Purity .... FB Not Blocked
3. Turned ON F.B.Purity ..... FB Not Blocked

I guess It was either temporary or a hick-up in my machine.

Confirming that MalwareBytes Browser Guard, due to a bad database, was temporarily alleging that some popular sites, including Facebook and Yahoo! Mail & Yahoo! Finance, were "malware".   The problem appears to have been corrected already.
