You can also submit a bug report on the panels project page at drupal.org, in case it is something panels related.

This is a bug with IE 8 rather than drupal and happens to be well documented among drupal web site developers testing on IE8. Check out the following links for more information:

i can bet it is because of CSS files, ie is so dumb that he doesnt like more than a certain amount of css files to load so ill suggest to enable css optimization at your drupal performance settings (/admin/settings/performance) but be aware because now everytime you edit your css files you will have to clear caches otherwise it you wont notice any changes.

welcome to web developers nightmare... microsoft! xD

6. Right on!

Xdeminax, you are on point. Its the limits placed on CSS files that IE uses.

Microsoft can be a pain in the &*% for developers and solution/system integrators dealing with compatibility.
