What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a brand new Yii installation
2. Install userGroups module
3. Login to Yii application
4. Access userGroups module (for example admin/documentation)
5. If using IE9 press F12
6. Change "Browser Mode" to IE7

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The module menu should look alike as in IE8/IE9

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.7.1

Please provide any additional information below.

IE8/9 in IE7-mode is not the same as using IE7. The difference is that the 
browser identify itself as IE8/9, but behaviour as IE7. Thus while it is 
possible to write special code for IE7, that code is not executed for IE8/9 in 
IE7-mode. A better solution for testing with IE7 is to get a virtual machine 
from Microsoft that has IE7 installed.

It is however a real issue that IE8/9 sometimes activates this "compatibility 
mode" on pages when you don't want it to do that.
