Spware killer apps killed my Javascript or ....

[Elmo Watson]

After I installed my spyware killer apps (spyware blaster, spybot and MS's
newest beta), I can't get to Iwon.com -
I get this message:
Right now, your browser's settings are configured to disable cookies and/or
javascript. In order to access your account, you must change your browser's
settings to accept both cookies AND javascript.

I went into the settings and enabled ActiveScript - (javascript - right?)
I also overrode the default cookie settings and chose to accept cookies and
Session cookies...

Still nothing - - same error.

any ideas?

Actually it should be the Microsoft VM - not ActiveScript. Or the Sun
version.

No. He said JavaScript. Microsoft VM is an obsolete Java engine. Java has
nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the names.
