Using IE9, can't see Captcha at all for new forum sign-up, not even compatibility mode seems to help

Just an FYI.

Site to test if your IE9 can see the captcha is found here:

Strange. Running IE9 final this is what I see:

Seems to be visible.

Can you confirm?

Good news, tried http://forum.covecube.com/entry/register
again tonight and Capcha is back, sorry about that, some sort of transient issue, perhaps on my end.

So it's all good now, my IE9 32 bit looks exactly like your screenshot.

However, I have also now noticed that IE9 64 bit doesn't show the captcha...

Maybe it's some kind of intermittent issue. Let me try it in a clean VM.

Win 7 x64 clean VM, installed IE 9, went to forum.covecube.com and clicked the sign up button. Captcha showed up just fine.

Anyone else seeing this?

I found the issue.

There is a new option in IE9 called "Tracking Protection" and if you leave it disabled (as it is by default), Captcha's will show up fine, 32 or 64 bit IE9.

But if Captcha doesn't show, just go to the gearbox button at top right of IE9, then choose "Safety", then "Tracking Protection" and "Disable", and Captcha will then work again.
