Explanation
Answer - A - To be able to access all the ActiveX controls on the social networking website, add the URL to the list of Trusted sites through the Security tab in Internet Options.

Key Takeaway: By default, sites in the Internet zone do not allow unsigned ActiveX controls. This can cause problems while viewing certain websites.

Be extra careful while adding sites to this zone, since malicious files can be downloaded and run by Internet Explorer without your knowledge.
