possibly because you are using a beta version of Internet Explorer.........

It is a problem with the IE8 RC1 release.  Stardock knows about and is working on it.  You can do one of two things, roll back to IE7 (which I did) or don't let WB skin IE.

Or, you can open ie. goto tools\internet options\advanced and unclick the option for enable visual styles on buttons and controls in webpages.

and yes it is only in ie8rc1 but can be fixed.

That still is a Beta. 'RC1' just means it's 'almostoutofbeta'....

....but if we see a RC100  then RC1 may not be quite as 'out' as some assume.

When it is [the equivalent of] RTM then we can worry....

Thanks for the bit of information Naz, I just may go back and reinstall IE8 and give that a try.
