Thank you for your efforts. I really appreciate it.
What Tom is meaning is that you may have access to the code between
<head> and </head>. If so, that's where the embedded conditional comment
<!--[if lte IE 8]> .. <![endif]--> is. A good read.

True but it can be changed via the CSS. You may only need to change it
to 304px. There are many fixes for what ever problems there are. It a
later type of hacking (quite lazy) where you just throw many little
tweaks to have IE8 or IE7 render correctly. Since it a WordPress theme,
the HTML is already over complex and this makes debugging problematic.
You can hack IE8 with CSS alone but I do not recommended it because you
are putting extra styling on top of styling and some of the CSS hacking
may effect, IE9 and IE10. IE10 does not support conditional comments.
If you HTML is friendly and you CSS is not over complex, then it easy to
code and only have to hack IE7 or earlier. The recent culture of
striving for support of IE7 or HTML5 is adding new problems for the
future. So when you do talk with guy who coded this custom home page,
you may want to advice him of this.
