[Athen] Internet Explorer keyboard only

[Dan Comden]

I thought Internet Explorer was only used to download Chrome and Firefox...

Ok, enough "humor"

In IE 11, I need about three tab presses to get into page content. I find
that if I reload the page, the focus will go immediately to top of page on
first tab press.

Are you running any plugins?
