I made a quick test case on this [1], and IE XP SP2 (including IE7, didn't they [2] say they have fixed it?) shows duplicated characters triggered by HTML comments, input type=hidden, and display:none content. The display:none thing is mentioned in the PIE article [3], and I remember vaguely someone has documented it, but did not find the link.
