What was the solution?

FYI
Removing the fist line problem shifted to IE9
so both IE8 & 9 displaying it properly with that
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE9" />
Thank all for your time.
Edit: I think this is the solution

This does not make any sense, IE9 is the latest, plus there is no such problem on your or any other site with IE9, checked that yesterday. He must have the "compatibility" mode hard-enabled in his IE9 or something.
@Stoker: tell him to damn upgrade his browser. Even on XP there is IE8 available, absolutely no reason anyone would use such outdated junk.

doktornotor with respect I believe the meaning of that is not our browser

Do not understand you last comment, sorry... If
Code: Select all
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE9" />
"fixes" the page in
IE9 then the browser was not running in the IE9 mode and there is absolutely no reason why it would not do so on a page with pretty damn standard doctype - that is, no reason beyond user messing with the "compatibility" view settings for that page. From the doc I linked before:
When Internet Explorer encounters a webpage that does not contain an X-UA-Compatible header, it uses the <!doctype> directive to determine how to display the page. If the <!doctype> directive specifies a standards-based document type, Internet Explorer displays the page in IE9 mode.

Finally I found the fix.
Open styles/prosilver/theme/colours.css
Find: #vertical-ticker{
Add after: position:relative;
Upload and refresh theme.

}
