Optimum Settings

Make sure you are making the most of the Starz Learning Platform

As Starz2 provides a range of up-to-date tools and functions, it doesn't work very well in older Internet browsers.

In particular, Microsoft's Internet Explorer 6 (IE6) causes quite a few problems.  Therefore, to use and view Starz 2 and all its tools effectively, it is highly recommended that you update your computer so that it runs with the following:

Approved Browsers Required Browser add-ons
Internet Explorer 7
Internet Explorer 8
Firefox 3
Safari 4
