IE win has a tendency to place floated blocks to high, and ignore some clearing on previous floated blocks. In your case, setting a width on the <dl> solves the problem I used a value of 30em, adjust to taste or needs, as long as it is higher than the sum of the widths+padding on the dt and dd. IE is not really good at calculating em width either.
