Which version of IE? Unfortunately, much of the corporate world uses IE 6 still, and there are issues with that browser. I'll see if I can find someone who knows more about Dreamwidth's plans that involve IE 6. IRC advises me that there's even a FAQ about older browsers and how to get around them on the update page: http://www.dreamwidth.org/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=149
