CSS IE vs FF...Menu Text Renders Different

Chrome Menu

I implemented the basic CSS code for the Chrome Menu, but the menu drop downs are rendering different in IE 7 vs FF 3. They seem to work correctly in FF but not in IE.

Found the problem....

filter: progidXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(color=#CACACA,direction=135,strength=4); /*Add Shadow in IE. Remove if desired*/


Removed it and it works fine...
