There are varying reasons this can happen, so try the following and see if
it helps:

JavaScript not working:

Uninstall Javascript from "Add Remove Programs" in control panel,
then download it from www.java.com and reinstall it.

Go to Tools | Internet Options | Advanced.
Check the box to Disable script debugging.
