I just tried it with ie8 on a vista system and it does work as expected here. I tried it from my favorites and again by typing in the m.facebook.com url and the page loaded correctly both times.

I do know you will get that request for a file download if you attempt to access m.facebook.com from a notetaker such as a braille sense plus.

though, that it is not a Window-Eyes problem.  By any chance, are you still 
using Internet
Explorer 6 as I am?  I am wondering if that is part of the problem.  I have 
saved the file and opened it and it appears to be an XML file and looks like 
the mobile site,
but there are references to WAPTHRU.ORG and I don't understand.  When I first 
saw this, I thought that perhaps some malware was trapping my connection, but
I've done a complete scan and have verified the behavior oon multiple computers.

Best regards,

I still can't get http://m.facebook.com to come up.  It asks me to download and 
save a file called .facebook(1) document  I don't know what that is.  Should I
download it or do you think its a virus?
Thanks,
