   Hi,

   Is anyone else experiencing problems with the position of "Add media" window when using Internet Explorer?

   Here is IE screenshot: http://www.thomasmedia.net/wp_in_IE.jpg
   Firefox screenshot: http://www.thomasmedia.net/wp_in_firefox.jpg

   Any solutions?

   Thanks.

   This is weird. I opened my computer from hibernation, IE was closed, I opened it and the Add media window was in the right position:

   Strange. I wonder what took that window to wrong position.

   As fast it started to work it also stopped working. Now the add media -window is back in the wrong position. Don't see any logic behind this.

   I think I got the solution. I added this code to the wp-includes/js/thickbox/thickbox.css

   *:first-child+html #TB_window {
   	position:fixed;
   	top:10%;
   	left:50%;}

   Only IE7 should be able to read it. I'm not sure about this but for now it seems to work.

   The problem causing this seems to be the thickbox.css and this code there:
   

   #TB_window {
   	position: fixed;
   	background: #ffffff;
   	z-index: 102;
   	color:#000000;
   	display:none;
   	border: 4px solid #525252;
   	text-align:left;
   	top:50%;
   	left:50%;
   }

   For some reason IE doesn't seem to understand the code as the Firefox and other browsers do.

   Forgot to mention that after adding the css empty your browser cache and you see the fix.
