Well I have experienced a similar issue thrice earlier and am curious about
the solution too. Twice my friends had approached me with a similar issue
but on windows, so I couldn't do much. And ended up attributing it to
windows' vulnerability to viruses.
Third was on a computer running Fedora in a comp Lab. It was not able to
open facebook while all other websites were working fine and other computers
in the same Lab (means same LAN too) were able to access it. (i.e there
wasn't any firewall configuration which was blocking it.)
pinging www.facebook.com even gave weird results.

@vaidik what was the result of adding 8.8.8.8 and then trying to ping the
