What could cause IE10 to block an iframe when running without compatibility view

We're experiencing an issue with our site, YouSIMUL8.com. We use this site to allow people to run simulations on the web. An example simulation can be found at http://www.yousimul8.com/watch.php?x=4d5005d769d31.

If you have a look at what's going with this page, when you press play it loads an iframe in and the simulation is shown there.

I've been speaking to a customer who has been having difficulty using the site. When they open a simulation, only the border of the iframe is shown and nothing else happens. This is using IE10. The problem disappears when compatibility view is turned on.

I cannot replicate this issue with IE10 no matter how hard I try. The customer's IT is outsourced so they cannot access the settings, developer tools or console in IE.

So the question is this: What configuration of the client's machines could cause this behavior?

To force to the rendering of the page to latest version of IE, overriding the automatic compatibility view, try to use the Meta Tag Compatibility View:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">

Have a look to this StackOverflow post.
