I found this quote on the net... it may help While still in main CSS file, hacked selectors start with * html. This is known as the 'star-HTML' hack. Standard compliant browsers ignore this selector, because there's actually no elements above html in a document tree. Luckily, IE doesn't know that and we're safe to use this flaw when applying IE specific hacks. Once we move hacks to a separate file and call it in a document with conditional comments, it's safe to remove the * html part.
