 Throughout wp 2.8.x there is a bug in the admin area while using internet
 explorer 7.horizontal scroll appears. most functionality work although the
 horizontal scrolling. i encountered a problem when using tinymce's
 functions to add links or paste from word.
 on internet explorer 8 all works fine and i haven't checked version 6.

 i also managed to trace the origin for this behavior:
 folder: wp-admin/css
 file: global.css
 line: 188 to 197
 There is a css section about "hide visually but not from screen readers"
 i'm not sure what this css class refers to, but by commenting these rows
 it fixed the horizontal scrolling. and all tinemce's functionality got
 back to normal.

 for more info, i can be contacted at: dannydulberg at gmail.com
