I had similar problems loading images into the infoWindow.  The
pctiure would show up after the infoWindow was sized and overflow.

You may be a victim of the speed of the newer version.  Namely, the
browser is throwing up the infoWindow before the content is completely
loaded.  Is the content being pulled from a database with a latency?

My fix was twofold:
1) size the <div> containing the content at the start. If your content
is fixed, you could store the number of lines of expected text, along
with the content.
2) resizing the infoWindow after the image is loaded (using the
onload="..." parameter for the image).  Not sure you can do that for
text.

I still occasionally see the problem.  When I do I notice it,
reloading the infoWindow (clicking on the icon again) fixes it, which
implies the second time around every thing was in the cache.  Not
good, and I still plan to play around with it.  As with most problems,
IE shows it the worst..
