    Are you trying in Firefox or Internet Explorer? Use internet explorer and NOT the 64 bit one.

    Firefox is great but wen something randomly doesnt work, it will probably work in IE lol.

    Yep definitely firefox, I have the same problem. The activex control thing that it requires you to install doesn't work in firefox. So "can I run it?" is the only thing I use IE for. :D
