To allow this blocked content to run, click the yellow bar. A content menu appears. Click "Allow Blocked Content." A dialog pop appears saying Allowing active content like Active X controls and script can be useful, but active content might also harm to your computer. Are you sure you want to allow this file to run active content?" Click the Yes button. The dialog box disappears and the yellow bar disappears. You can now access the active content on this page.
