Please pardon the late reply, but I only returned to my SOHO moments ago.
Gary: No & No. If you use IE10 in compatibility mode everything actually displays better. We also double checked caching - no problem there.
Zuperman: I'll look into your link and revert.
Sepator: The best advice!!! I actually though about adding a redirect to a page warning users not to use IE10.
I read an article in .Net Magazine a couple of months ago wherein the writer sing high praises to IE10, but as life would have it experience taught me the exact opposite. Since upgrading to IE10 I encountered challenge after challenge – even when using the Visual Studio IDE! Surely someone at MS should have the intelligence of halting the distribution of IE10 and first addressing all the bugs prior to casting their developer community into the deep end having to face problems which does not make any logical sense. But, that would make like rather boring...
Thanks a stack for your inputs.
IE10 is a nightmare. I don't know how many support calls I hear our IT help desk guys get about things on our site not working correctly and the answer is always put it into compatibility mode...

Some days when I think about the next 30 years or so of my life I am going to spend writing code, I happily contemplate stepping off a curb in front of a fast moving bus.
