Yes, this sucks. IE reloads the "current URL", and in a single-page
interface mostly that means you have to navigate again manually to the
point where you left.
My quick and kludgy solution would be to open a pop-up
programmatically at the beginning of the app - and close it back
within a second or two. In this time, the user will get the pop-up
blocker notification and they'll either accept it (good for them) or
deny it. But this'll ensure that the pop-up blocker has been dealt
with before the user starts using your app.
Not a great solution, but I can't of anything better ATM.
