Moral of the story:

If you have put up a website of any kind, even if it's a single page -
DON'T USE IE TO TEST WITH. At least run your site against other
browsers first, and run IE last. With the excellent Firefox browser
now in full release, there's no reason for discriminating surfers and
web builders to be running Internet Exploder any more anyway.
