Thomas, thank you for helping.  I added the stanza you suggested above
to my page:

 My page is as follows:

<html>
  <head>
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=UTF-8">
        <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE-EmulateIE7">
    <link rel="shortcut icon"href="http://nmsapp01.wldblu.net/
favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
    <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript"
src="com.wildblue.ShowAlerts.nocache.js"></script>
  </head>
        <body>
        </body>
</html>

Yet I still get the same behaviour from the script where everything
seems to run okay except for links to local files or a httprequest
that results in a

"Content-type: application/x-csv\n"
"Content-Disposition: attachment;filename=data.csv\n\n"

going back to the browser.  in otherwords I am having the server send
back a csv file.

Those worked in IE7.

IE8 pops up a window with an error like the following in it:

Line: 1800
Error: Invalid argument.

I really think IE8 is complaining about the Same Origion Policy
exception.  I don't know if or how to configure things to relax the
check.
I got around this in Firefox by adding the NoScript addon and
configuring it.
IE7 did not seem to have the SOP check.

Our shop wants to move to IE8  so I am stuck with trying to resolve
this.

Any more ideas Thomas?  I hope.  I'll keep researching aswell.

Thanks
