I have a problem with fading text in IE 8, 7 and 6 (obviously).

I have a problem with fading text in IE 8, 7 and 6 (obviously). The text has a black outline during the animation that completely ruins the effect. Is there a workaround? I’ve read a bunch of answers about this problem and none made sense. Please take a look at this simple jsFiddle http://jsfiddle.net/LhSK7/ in IE 8, and show me how to fix it if possible.

Edit: screenshot of the problem: http://i43.tinypic.com/1z6h1th.png
I thought it might be because of the VirtualBox, but all other browsers display it correctly in VirtualBox.

Edit #2: the problem can sort of be solved by setting the background color of the element being faded, which while still pretty ugly in IE 8 and below, at least gets rid of the black outline.

    If you can set a background colour to #content, that should work (at least in IE8, I don’t have older versions at hand to check).
