Facebook like button doesn't show in IE, only for one specific page

I'm managing a page for a client that has a like button on his page. The strange thing is that it doesn't show up in IE, while it does in other browsers. I use the iframe code of facebook:

<iframe src="http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=URLOFPAGE&amp;send=false&amp;layout=button_count&amp;width=150&amp;show_faces=true&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light&amp;font&amp;height=21&amp;" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" style="border:none; overflow:auto; width:150px; height:21px;" allowTransparency="true"></iframe>

When I use the url of my own facebook page the like button works (even in IE), but when I use the url of my client it doesn't. What could be wrong?

Thanks in advance!

I found the solution. The problem why the like button didn't show was because of the 'country restrictions'. Go to your page -> manage permissions and delete all country restrictions.

Now the like button will show on all computers, mobile phones, tablets, etc.

Try checking the length of your client's URL. I've found previously that the URL was simply too long. If they haven't claimed a unique URL (e.g. facebook.com/TheClientsName) then do that first and it should solve the problem.
