Since I'm on linux I can't test IE, but I did reverse engineer a bit of the obfuscated javascript that was causing the problem (shoppingads' javascript). Whatever shoppingads does it's not getting it's keywords set properly (shoppingads_ad_kw) and it is making a call to a function called scrubSXX() with a null parameter. This is causing javascript to crash (especially on IE) and is probably causing most of the headache. I'm still trying to figure out where in the page the shoppingads code is loaded (it's not directly in the source and must be loaded somewhere by javascript into the DOM)


The crashing JS means that IE will panic and not load the page well at all. It may also explain garbled output becaue vB relies heavily on JS to work in order to setup a bunch of advanced formatting and overall DOM setup.
