Ever have your browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Opera or whatever you are using) NOT do something that you wanted? You're using a site that promises to open an extra window for a survey, a test, a login window...whatever, and it doesn't happen. I could whinge on about Shockwave and Flash plugins, or how some sites are designed with only one browser in mind (which was very common for years - developers only aimed for IE and Firefox and friends were just out of luck). What you want to know is "How can I get around this stumbling block?".
You might want to try a different browser. Yes, it might be that easy. If it doesn't work in Firefox or Safari, try IE. It's right there on your Windows computer. Maybe you stopped using it because it was slow or didn't let you add Personas or it isn't as cool as Apple's Safari. It doesn't matter. If it will let you do what you need to do on the Internet, then try it.
Of course you may have other issues, like out of date plugins, or corrupted files. But for an easy fix, it is certainly worth trying. Isn't it?
