Bootstrap Font Awesome and IE8

Question

I'm using Font Awesome for my project and it works fine for chrome, firefox and IE9 but it fails show icons for ie8. I tried if it was my fault but also the project site doesn't show fonts ony my IE8 (win7).

I use the default web-protection of IE8, what can be the reason ?

Thanks

Answer 1

Fonts only work when viewed in IE8 mode (not compatibility or IE7 standards mode) so make sure that your browser is set to that mode. Further down on the roadmap section of the page you can see where they list future support for IE7, which IE8 compat view should be emulating.
