Atahualpa + eMember plug in + IE 8

Another problem cropped up this morning. I generally use Firefox. So far so good. But I have a "semi-colon" problem in the footer (another thread being discussed here) and a friend used IE to see if he could help me.

IE 8
My "Home" shows neither a Footer nor my Member Log In plug in from eMember in the right sidebar. But they both show up on all the other pages on my website.

Firefox: Everything is there as it should be!

Any suggestions as to how to solve this IE no-show problem?
