Odd Bug with IE

[NDMCT]

I'm running FCG on the front page of http://www.nbrtc.com and it is working very well in FF and in Chrome, but in IE8 it is being odd - not broken, just odd.

Here are the symptoms:
* Text doesn't appear at the bottom of the gallery.
* Carousel appears faintly, clicking the link brings it to the foreground, clicking it again makes it faint again.
* IE is not throwing any errors. It was previously being a big buggy and throwing errors but they were related to plugin/theme conflicts. I believe I have addressed all of those.

Currently running:
Atahualpa 3.4.2
Wordpress 2.8.3

EDIT: I have been trying several suggestions on the forums - I have specified an overlay height for text and tried fiddling with other options, still no go.

EDIT2: EXTREMELY ODD BUG! So the problems I listed appear when I initially load the site and if I click on FCG to get to a story and then hit BACK it loads 100% correctly. I am so confused now my brain hurts.

Okay - I think I tracked down the problem. I think it is a bug with the wp-cumulus plugin. I've deactivated that and the content is loading correctly now. I'm going to dive into the wp-cumulus plugin and see if I can see if I can find the conflict. Any help resolving this would be nice.

Okay - so this is going to end up being the stupidest thread ever, but I solved my problem.

I accomplished it by turning on compatibility mode in wp-cumulus.

"Enabling this option switches the plugin to a different way of embedding Flash into the page. Use this if your page has markup errors or if you're having trouble getting WP-Cumulus to display correctly. This affects both the shortcode version and the widget."

I don't know why it worked, if at some point you'd like me to reproduce the error I can.

Thanks.
