We all know that Microsoft has released IE8 recently but its not showing most of the sites properly and having lots of problems with their layout.
If you are a website owner, here is a quick way to make your website compatible to IE8:
Just copy following line and paste it to next of <Head> tag in your Index file:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />
Save the file and your site should not have any problem in IE8.

Looks like IE8 isn't working properly with your site. I've clicked your banners and they don't open a website. Could mean a lot of lost revenue.
