Given the purpose of the site and it's broad potential reach (and the fact that it's not a domain that requires pushing the envelope in terms of rich user experience), I was pretty suprised to see that the entire 'Rated Services' section was a giant white block in Internet Explorer 9.
I could understand lack of support for IE7 (or perhaps crappy formatting), would raise an eyebrow at lack of support for IE8 (given the nature of the domain and that there's no compelling reason for a lack of graceful fallback in this case), but lack of IE9 support is a bit... suprising.
I certainly hope the team plans on addressing this, otherwise you're cutting a large chunk of browser users out of the picture for (from what I can see) no compelling reason related to the technical requirements of the kind of content you are delivering.
When I first loaded the page, I was unsure about whether they have no sites, i.e., whether they're just showing a proof of concept. The text said they were planning to review ToS of major sites by middle of july, so that prompted me to fire up Opera.
If somebody wonders why I want to use IE9: easily configurable and non-obtrusive, BUILT-IN plugin blockers and ad blockers [+ do-not-track lists].
