I thought you weren't having any problems.
Is one of my suggestions not working for you anymore?

Re: Spurious history
It is not at all uncommon for websites to make javascript calls to other websites. For instance, when our ads load they make multiple calls to other sites. However, we are planning on adding an opt-out button for registered members who want to suppress the FB integration....

But, from your response in the Facebook Connect FAQ thread...
I thought you weren't having any problems.
Is one of my suggestions not working for you anymore?

It took me close to 20 minutes to load this thread, see that there was no update, click to respond, and to post this response.
And for now I'm naively looking past the good point made above that my firm's IT logs probably show that I'm trying to access Facebook repeatedly when I'm opening these pages.
Please offer an option to disable the Facebook call.

What kind of "user enhancement" is this that you have to run what you do here by facebook?

Since people are having a problem with corporate firewalls, we created a Flyertalk cname for the sub-domain that the script loads from. Unfortunately, when Facebook's servers build that dynamic script, they look at the requested URI, and if they don't recognize it, the script errors out.
We don't run anything by Facebook. When I tried calling Mark Zuckerberg it went straight to voicemail.
This is 100% false.
