One thing I would do is to take each script in turn and change them
over to using the more correct syntax for addressing globals - like
$_POST['email'] etc - it will work fine while you have
register_globals on and when you are happy that all the necessary
scripts have been upgraded you could just switch register_globals off.
Like one of the other posters, I think the problem won't be in IE it
will be with your script corrupting the contents of those globals. So,
by changing your script to explicitly refer to them as $_POST you will
reduce the potential for confusion with local variables and hopefully
see where the problem is creeping into your script. :o)
