Okay so like everything else IE8 is giving some serious problems. When trying to load MooTools into the browser IE8 just gives me a "A security problem occurred" error. I think it may have something to do with the clashing of files or something but I can't seem to figure it out. Here's a web address so you can see for yourself.

Every other browser loads fine and what is weird is that the other pages load MooTools and my other javascript files just fine. What is happening!!

Thanks, Tyler

@Tyler the `username:password` scheme was disabled in IE8. @Pointy, we found the same thing at the same time :) +1.

When I try to get some information out of the debugger in IE8, it seems that it chokes trying to set the src property of some element to this value:

(removed the password in case it is sensitive info - it's somewhere in the source though)

Update: I think I know what this is. This way of passing auth info was disabled in IE8 for security purposes. I thought that was the case for Firefox too, but it works there.
