Why not use
ul {
list-style-image URL(bullet.gif);
}
I believe that is supported by IE.

Good point.
And yes, I'm not a fan of the bullets, but the client insists. Ugh.

I guess because it is just a little to sophisticated for IE/6 and IE/7 ???
And it gets a little strange in compliant browsers if the user has the
fonts set to a minimum font-size (I am at 16px).
I think you may need to use an image if you want those to look the same
