IE just sucks, and until IE8 comes out you’re going to have to keep tweaking it to fix it. I’m not sure exactly what IE is reading different than firefox because I’m using a Mac but I know that you can put \*+html infront of a class or id name and those properties will only render for IE.
for example,
```auto
*+html .classname {
someparam;
}
```
would only be read in IE.
