This warning still occurs even if the site is in the trusted sites zone (which 
it always has been for me). It occurs both if ActiveX filtering is enabled or 
disabled for the trusted zone.

This clone bug that is being detected by using the <object> tag, does the bug 
only apply to cloning ActiveX objects and parameters? Or do other elements have 
clone issues in IE 8? IE 8 support is still needed... though we don't clone any 
objects, just simple elements like divs, images and spans. If it only applies 
to objects, then perhaps commenting out the faulting lines of code would be an 
okay fix for us?

It is just a warning, but not one we can have showing up.

Thanks for looking into it!
