hey mike toledano, you asked about IE 8 earlier and I found something interesting about it that affected our web site... (link)

... using Internet Explorer 8, web users can not see the tabs on our web site. I found this out because first a friend wrote in mentioning it (thanks Carina!). I didn't know why until one of our computers was "updated" to IE8. Afterwards, we could not see the tabs like; Contact Us, About Us, Home, etc...

For all of you IE 8 users, click on our site link below and let me know if you see the Contact Us, About Us, Home, etc... tabs on the left side then switch to another browser and see if you see them.

I built our web site and I thought that there was something I could do to change this but not a chance. The issue is with IE 8 and I think IE 8 alone. All other browsers seem to work fine with our site. Go figure. Chaulk another one up for MS BS. :)

BTW, they are working on a "Patch" that is supposed to fix this issue but it won't help much, I learned that there are so many patches, you just might see IE 9 before they're all done fixing IE 8...

Now I have to go write a note on our web site mentioning this... I'll be sending the bill for my time to Bill Gates when I'm done too. :)
