Often I can't see the 'action' square or button on a website and have to resort (ugh) to Internet Explorer - what's the fix?
Many website evidently tailor their content to Internet Explorer rules, as I can't see many of the 'action' squares or buttons on the site with Firefox. Then I have to open Internet Explorer (which I hate) in order to get to where I want to go or do. Is there a fix for this. Thanks so much for your consideration
