Why I am not able to edit my website due to my browser?

I have recently created a website using Presence Builder through my ISP. When I returned to do some editing I was not able to access it. I contacted my ISP and was told it was due to my browser. I was able to access the editing on another computer which leads me to believe it is my browser. How am I able to fix this issue?

Thanks for you help ... much appreciated. I ended up restoring the defaults on my virus protection and that solved the issue.
