RE: Internet Explorer problem - please help

I didn't fully read the solution provided by Jan so they might've already
mentioned this in his/her post.

You can go to Tools --> Internet Options and click on Security Tab. Then,
where it says "Select a Web Content Zone to specify its security settings",
click Trusted sites. In the next dialogue box that pops up, you can add
specific URLs for websites that you fully trust and Internet Explorer will
bypass most security settings while browsing to those sites on the list.
