How to Enable JavaScript (required to use Online Account Access)

Method #1: Trusted Sites Zone

Using Trusted Sites Zones in Microsoft Internet Explorer, it is easy to Add legitimate known sites, even when your overall Browser Internet Options are set for disabling JavaScript.

In Microsoft Internet Explorer, pages in the Trusted Sites zone run at the Medium security level (not Medium-High as in the Internet zone) and aren't restricted by the customizations you've applied to the Internet zone.
