if the address is a https:// address then take the s out
or as hamsterfan1 says if theres a shield in the top right of your browser click on that and theres an option to "load unsafe script" (or something similar)Luck affects everything; let your hook always be cast; in the stream where you least expect it, there will be a fish0 -
Thanks for trying to help
but taking out the s doesnt seem to be making a difference, cant see a shield, any other suggestions?

Are you using Avast anti-virus and if so, do you get a small green circle at the top right of your screen that shows the name Avast and a site rating when you hover the cursor on it?
I have found that Avast blocks tracking from some sites including Facebook.
If you click on the green circle, it opens a side bar at the top of which it says "Social networks blocked" followed by a tick. If you click on the tick, it will change to "Social networks allowed" and you should then be able to refresh the page and the Enter button should work.
This will however enable Social network trackers to track you on that site. You can change it back to blocked after entering.
Sometimes you need to go a step further and specifically unblock Facebook.
Sometimes the unblocking allows the previously mentioned shield to appear and you need to permit a potentially harmful script.
OR, change your antivirus.0
