I'm calling BS on this. I had the same trouble on another computer. EOC was the only site to do it.
As a web designer, I will be the first to say that while I wish IE was dead, telling people to use a different browser just doesn't work.
Call BS all you want. I use the following browsers on the following platforms:
XP: IE6, IE7, IE8, Firefox, Opera, Safari and Chrome
OS X: Safari, Firefox and Chrome
Have never had a single issue with any of our sites, except during times of testing/upgrading. I use all of these browsers so I can test things not only on the sites but also at work and for beta testing that I do to help friends troubleshoot their own sites.
Anytime someone has had an issue with the EOC and claimed it was us it doesn't turn out that way. There have been times during server maintenance, server switching or site upgrades where we would run into troubles, but nothing like that has taken place in close to a year.
