Someone just asked for a program to make iso files on windows.
But it was gone when I tried to reply.
Anyway mkisofs is a no nonsense, no gui, no cost, no installation tool to create ISO files.

I had an opportunity to go to Kiel recently for some training, and one weekend, we did go to the miniature museum in Hamburg. It is a very neat place showing the history of Germany throughout the ages. The trains are neat, but the Airport room is awesome 
The neat thing is all of the visual 'easter eggs' seen throughout the museum.

I love the Area 51 in the America section.
Or the cows with the diving equipment in the Scandinavia section.

Very cool. BTW, I spotted a UFO hovering above the tracks. Probably waiting to abduct some of the miniature people.

If you ever go there in person there's a button to press and the UFO starts to move...

I had a train set as a child and have not really been much of a miniature train person since, however this is amazing thanks

... Unless I had a requirement to support old mickeysoft browsers.
I had been banging my head over a simple design solution for last few hours to just get the navbar right.
I can't use polyfills because that may not be available due to "security"
And browser cannot be updated again due to an obnoxious cocktail of "security" and "compatibility"
Because an internal thing is running on something that breaks on new mickeysoft browsers.

Compatibility Mode?
Really, I don't understand why it's so difficult to fix the 'internal thing' to work with the modern browsers as it's usually just outdated javascript or css.
This morning (at my non-developer Saturday job) I have been fighting with IE11 on Win10 Home. (yes, they are using Home edition for the business) Start IE, it crashes. Disable all add-ons and restart it, it crashes. So why not just use another browser? Because the commercial web application we use to do business only works with IE<10! I finally got it to work by using the 'run as admin' option which raises another question. Why does that work, when I'm already an Administrator on the box?  Actually, I don't care, as long as it works for my shift. My point is that it is bad business to promote an IE only product!

UAC - you're an Administrator, but you're not an Administrator.
Did you try turning Protected Mode off?
Internet Explorer Protected Mode - Turn On or Off - Windows 7 Help Forums[^] (It says Windows 7, but the steps haven't changed for W10.)
It could be a problem with the permissions on the file system or the registry. They aren't documented anywhere, and they're so complicated to fix that MS usually just tell you to create a new user profile, or refresh/reset your PC.

Richard, Turning off the Protected Mode did the trick. Thanks!

No it isn't difficult at all. But no one cares to update it. It does contain some kind of ActiveX back from the IE6 days which refuses to run on new machines.

How old are we talking?
If it's IE10, then you just need to use the older syntax[^].
Using Flexbox: Mixing Old and New for the Best Browser Support[^]
If it's IE9 or earlier, then you'll need to fake it with float or display:inline-block.
Use Modernizr[^] to add classes to the <html> element so that you can easily switch between approaches:
.flexbox .product-grid
{
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
flex-wrap: wrap;
justify-content: center;
}
.flexbox .product-grid > .product-grid-item
{
flex-basis: 25%;
}
.no-flexbox .product-grid > .product-grid-item
{
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
width: 25%;
}
If you're using display:inline-block, watch out for white-space between your elements:
Fighting the Space Between Inline Block Elements[^]
But now this is starting to turn into a programming question!

Thank you for your awesome answer for my non programming question. Especially for the link to the old syntax and how to mix it with the new syntax properly.
But the idiot devil sysadmin has turned off JavaScript
Old : As I'm told a couple of boxes may still run IE 6. Majority are Windows 7 boxes, so I guess should be IE 8
Pretty old indeed. With the exception of dev boxes that we use.
I'm not using flexbox now. Had to go the hard way with floats and inline-blocks.

Kill it! Kill it with fire! 
Might be worth mentioning to the sysadmin that support for IE6 ended in April 2014. Every security vulnerability found since then remains unpatched.
And, as of 12th January this year, anything earlier than IE11 is in the same boat: Internet Explorer End of Support[^]

Your sysadmin seems to be the a complete idiot.

You still have an ip address don't you?
And what about cookies?

Yes I have an IP (from my provider), but I changed my Location before two month... and somebody seems to remember my history.
Cookies: I don't think so. I tried it with a VBox which is really - I think - virgin. But same happens there.
And the most curious: If I do the same while connecting to any pc in our Company Network I face the same

I run CCleaner on a regular basis to get rid of pesky cookies and other stuff left behind when I use my browser. It's free.
