If you're using popups with a fixed width theme, Internet Explorer 6 and 7 will display the overlay with the left of your container element. For example:

<body>
<div id="popups-overlay"></div>
<div id="fixed-container"></div>
</body>

#popups-overlay's left will be wherever the container is calculated from the width: auto; declaration.

The attached patch fixes this issue by detecting IE 6/7 and manually setting the left to 0. IE8 fixed this bug, so it's not needed there.

Enjoy!
