Francis, try to keep up. Microsoft will be releasing IE 8 precisely to meet
web standards which it's ignored for so long with previous versions. Ask
Monkey Boy and he'll tell you.

Cheers.

Follow up for anyone who is *not* experiencing the problem:

Are you on a Tablet? From the conversation in the link which I posted,
respondents have speculated that the problem is exclusive to Tablet edition.
If you are on Vista Tablet edition using IE7 and not experiencing the
problem that would at least give me the encouragement that the problem can
be solved.

Thanks,
