No, it's my five year old laptop where only I am the administrator.

Not sure if it matters but about three months ago I wiped the 
Win7-upgraded-to-Win8 installation and did in effect a "factory reset" 
back to Vista.

I use Facebook multiple time most days (for years), and have never 
before seen any error message like this.
