Hve you tried adding:
list-style: inside;
or
list-style: outside;
I dont know if it will fix your problem, but it has helped me on a
couple of occassions.

Subject: [WSG] List Item Background Disappearing in IE
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I've googled and discovered that yeah it's a known bug, Im just
wandering if anyone has any suggestions on how to remedy it?
DETAILS:
I have an unordered list using css to load/position a graphical bullet point.
ul li {background:transparent url("images/li_sprite.gif")
no-repeat 0 0}
It works fine across the board until the text within the <li></li> wraps.
At this point the bullet disappears in IE5 and up (and Opera).
Adding a colour to the background (let's say white #fff) certainly
fixes the problem.
ul li {background:#fff url("images/li_sprite.gif") no-repeat 0 0}
But in this particular instance I can't use a background colour (hence
transparent) and I've exhausted all my options. Im not alone in the
world:

But there just doesn't seem to be a definitive solution... any
info/ideas or otherwise on a way to fix this would be a great help.
Cheers
Andy
