Script error on the Sims 3 launcher?

[graceymanors]

This is what I am getting today, I tried clearing Internet Explorer's Cache and resetting internet explorer, my temporary files, and restarting laptop.

@PrivateRyan217 @graceymanors @lauraelise92 @skyrockethoffman  This is an EA server issue not being able to communicate with Facebook to display something. Just click no to stop the script. You may have to click more then once. The launcher should then proceed as normal. and not affect the game play. I'm guessing the error will go away when Facebook corrects whatever it changed or EA corrects the script to whatever Facebook changed.

I got errors no matter how many times I clicked no, however, I started a new game and had no problems.

This started happening to me yesterday.  Every time I open the launcher, I get the same message.  I haven't had a chance to play the game though (it first happened during a Sims 3 Store purchase, which seemed to complete/download okay).  I can't see it affecting gameplay (at least, I hope not), unless it turns out that The Sims 3 is constantly trying to connect to that Facebook script or something.  I have read numerous reports online of these types of script errors supposedly affecting peoples' game though, often leaving them unplayable.

No matter what, I hope this gets fixed.  Soon.  I should've have an annoying error message pop up every time I play a game that I've spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars on over the years and, thanks to the unnecessary patch 1.69, there is no way to bypass the launcher anymore to start the game.
