If you are still having a problem, check around this line of code
if (Modernizr.history) {
// history management works!
} else {
// no history support :(
//hash = unescape(window.location.hash).replace('#','').split("?")[0]
hash = History.unescapeHash(window.location.hash).replace('#','').split("?")[0]
if (hash.substring(0,11)==askbot['urls']['questions']){
url = hash
}else{
url = askbot['urls']['questions']+hash
}
if (hash !== ''){
window.location = 'http://'+window.location.host+url
}
}
and comment out the window.location line. what it's doing is trying to force history into IE when it really doesn't need to.
Also, if your code is a little different look for the askbot['urls']['questions'] and it should be around there.
