 * People who use internet explorer are having trouble viewing certain things on
   my site. I used Firefox and such and everything works perfectly. Any of you have
   a clue on what to do?

 * You could try this, not sure if it will work – but it might. Lots of things could
   cause this issue.
 * Copy your current style.css file and give the new file the name **ie7.css** (
   leave your current style.css just as it is with no changes, just make a copy 
   of it).
 * Place the new ie7.css file in your wp-content/themes/yourTheme directory.
 * Log into WordPress and place this code in your header.php file just under the
   link to your current stylesheet:
 *     ```
       <!--[if IE 7]>
       <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/ie7.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
       <![endif]-->
       ```
   
 * If no change, just delete the code and the file. Worth a try.

 * Certain javascript code (from a plugin, your theme, an addon, or code that you
   added yourself) can trigger this IE bug.

 * XxDarkSinzxX, unfortunately without much to go on, it’s kind of like saying you
   take your car into a repair shop and when the guy asks you what’s wrong you say,“
   It’s making a knocking sound when I drive. What’s wrong?”
 * Impossible to tell unless the hood is popped.
 * If it were working before, then obviously anything you’ve done recently messed
   it up.
 * I you’re just setting this up, any number of things could cause this problem.
 * If this site is very important to you, it might be worth spending a few bucks
   and hiring one of the many people on here to debug your site for you.

 * You had to make me find my glasses!
 * I see the site fine in IE7 and in IE8. Is there something specific IE users can’t
   see?

 * People tell me that the site works for them “sometimes” and it doesn’t work for
   them most of the time though. The problem keeps coming back.

 * Sorry for double posting but alot of people keep getting the error in the screenshot.
   edit: I also just did the thing you suggested blog and i’m going to see how that
   works out. Also i didn’t change anything recent to the site either and i don’t
   have to money to hire someone right now.

 * I still see it fine but the error is apparently with IE7 and Vista. I am running
   XP on a net book so with XP no problem.

   is going wrong.
