Giving us the link to the site would make troubleshooting a lot easier. Note that this is not a Joomla problem but an HTML one. And before it was IE8 now it is IE6? maina martin wrote:

It is probably caused by pasting text directly from Word into an HTML editor like TinyMCE. Basically you need to render the comments correctly: <!--[if !supportLists]--> should for example be <!-- [if !supportLists] --> so you would need to add some kind of replace when rendering the fields editable by TinyMCE. $own_content = str_replace('<!--', '<!-- ', $content); $own_content = str_replace('-->', ' -->', $content); print $own_content; If this is too complicated just ask the ppl editing the site to paste content from Word into a text editor like notepad before pasting it into TinyMCE. You could also check if there is a newer version of your HTML editor (TinyMCE?) that cleans up pasted HTML from Word more efficiently.
