So, just this evening, the front page of CoG seems to be broken for me in IE. Still works fine in Firefox. I get no sidebar at all and can only see the first four news posts. Any ideas?

A million points to whoever makes the first "stop using IE" joke.

I get it too. IE 8. I think it may be something to do with that Batman Arkham Asylum article with the Catwoman vid.

Might want to try disabling flash and see what happens.

Same here - IE 9 RC1.

The final thing got released yesterday. But it seems to require a manual download and won't just update to automatically (download link. (http://www.beautyoftheweb.com/#/download))

IE 7 for me.

I sure hope this isn't your home computer.

I rem-ed out the batman trailer video section:

<!--
<object id="vid_4d7eb4213831c8383500020d" class="ign-videoplayer" width="480" height="270" data="http://media.ign.com/ev/prod/embed.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">
<param name="movie" value="http://media.ign.com/ev/prod/embed.swf" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" />
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" />
<param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />
<param name="flashvars" value="url=http://uk.ign.com/videos/2011/03/15/batman-arkham-city-this-aint-no-place-for-a-hero-trailer"/>
<br />
-->

and the page looks fine in IE8, locally. It is definitely the Batman Trailer Video that is causing the problem in IE.

Possible Solution: DELETE IE from your system. ;)

Some people are on work computers, have to use IE. I really wish I could but I can't install other browsers.

IE 7 for me.

Same with IE7 for me. We should delete resikel from the system and see if that works :)

What's the front page? Doesn't everyone simply go here?

I removed the IGN video, but things are still a little strange. All of the youtube embeds are blank. I'm working on the problem.
