As documented on the plugin's website here:

http://www.datatables.net/forums/discussion/5481/bug-ghost-columns-when-...

Apparently there is a bug in IE9 that only occurs in tables with large numbers of rows and/or columns where "ghost columns" are being displayed. This does not occur in IE7 or IE8, and other browsers do not exhibit the same behavior.

The root cause of the problem in IE9 appears to be linked to whitespace in between the table markup tags, which although valid HTML cause IE9 to render tables incorrectly.

The patch below strips out the problem whitespace before processing the table with the plugin.
