It's apparently not quite a problem with IIS, but with the content of
the pages served by IIS.  The "horse's mouth" description is at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc288325(VS.85).aspx.
Presumably, the problem can occur with any web server that generates
pages that don't meet IE8s requirements.

Don't ya just love the lack of backward compatibility?  And all this
talk of standards, yet it's being done three different ways in IE6,
IE7, and IE8.
