Hi there,
The way IE8 renders is different from previous versions. The asp:Menu assumes incorrect defaults with regards to the z-index of the menu items. The ASP.NET team seems to be working on a fix for this problem.
In the mean time, take a look here to learn how you can work around the issue yourself:

In your case, you can fix the Planet Wrox site as follows:
1. In MasterPage.master add a new DynamicMenuStyle item like this:
Code:
<asp:Menu ID="Menu1" runat="server" CssClass="MainMenu" ....>
<DynamicMenuStyle CssClass="DynamicMenuStyle" />
...
Next, in Monochrome.css for the Monochrome theme add the following selector:
.DynamicMenuStyle
{
z-index: 1000;
}
I'll fix the live version of PlanetWrox.com....
Hope this helps,
Imar
