Hi,

Two things.

First  a very reliable way to see the peek-a-boo bug in MSIE is to view the 
WeBWorK questionnaire.

Second is to recall that the hack
   * {zoom: 1;}
we added to get around MSIE's peek-a-boo causes MSIE to drop labels with 
the <OL> tag.

The latter is I think a worst problem than the peek-a-boo bug so I would 
vote to comment out the hack (which is in fact what we did last year at 
Rochester but that "fix" has now been over ridden)
