[horde] Serious IE Rendering Problems

Thanks for this oh-so-productive input. I really can't address any of 
the vague,
no way to track in a useful way things you alluded to, so I'll just say that
turning off alpha transparency (in your preferences) will probably solve most
of this. Though as one confused bug reporter noted, turning off alpha
transparency does, shockingly, result in a few images NOT BEING TRANSPARENT!

Known gecko bug, read the numerous posts about it.

> Are you guys now using CSS to do everything now instead of tables?

No. View Source could have told you that, of course.
