      That is your problem I'm afraid - IE is an unsupported browser now, and hasn't been for quite a long time. Microsoft withdrew support and development for it, which means that as things have moved along around it, it hasn't and things are slowly stopping working.

      I would strongly advise changing your browser to either Firefox (my preference) or Chrome (one of the most popular out there) - there are others, but not really worth talking about here to be honest.

          Yep! I change ages ago from IE to Firefox. I am told that Opera is a fast one.

          Hope you get it sorted.

            @roders , you will find Chrome and Firefox very similar . They only take 5 minutes to download and install . So you can have a play with both of them :blue thumb:
