Um this has been addressed a few times last year in the tech forum... so if what I say doesn't click.. recheck there??? lol

Make sure your stuff is checked off in the Internet Options area. (Go up on your computer tool bar... clickon Tools, the Options (Internet Options) and I think Advanced? Sorry I went to Mozilla and I'm not easily familiar with it's differences and can't remember my IE ones LOL ANYWAY... make sure you're allowing Active X stuff (safe ones) and... seems to me there was something else... like check all the Security settings of SSL etc?

Oh and um make sure you have javascript clicked as enabled... and and that you allow images to load...

I really don't know much about computers. What I've learned is by trial and error and problems with which others have helped me... and I've forgotten half of that ! LOL

But there are some real nerds who can help... post in Tech Forum if you still have troubles and they don't correct me HERE

Oh wait... smilies work on other sites... do you have this site excepted ??? That's in tools also... internet options or web settings... make sure you're allowing images and stuff for this site.
