    Hi folks , I have a very slight issue with IE10, -its not major and is just an annoyance really but I would like to get to the bottom of it.

    When surfing on Amazons website in Firefox and other browsers, if I "mouse over" the "Your Account" part , A sub menu drops down to allow me to navigate to different parts of my account.

    In IE10 this does not happen for me - A mouse-over just highlights the two words and the menu does not open.

    Does anybody know how I can adjust IE`s settings to enable this feature?

    I assume its just a setting in my preferences?

    Well, that menu is done in CSS, so I suggest you reset IE10 to default settings. It should work that way.

    Already is at default - can you tell me where I can find the specific settings?

    Edit:- went to tools>internet options>advanced> Reset, but it didn`t cure it - its still the same.

    If you aren't using any add-ons that interfere, I'd look at security software or deleting your cache. Is this IE10 on Win8?

    Yeah its IE10, Win 8 Pro. -I`m using the microsoft security software (defender) & resetting the cache was one of the first things I tried.
    I think the default settings reset I did disables all add-ons anyway doesn`t it?
    I also made a point of rebooting the machine after I did this too.
    Its the same in the desktop mode as well.

    Ah well, its not a huge problem - it just would have been good to know why it doesn`t work in IE.

    Well, it certainly is weird. Like I said, it is just a CSS menu, so it should work.

    If I add amazon.com to "Restricted" sites, the menu no longer works, so have a look if you have it in there...

    OK. It looks like some scripting setting, but with default settings it should work.
