I had similar problems. After some research I found two reasons:

First, you can hook /html/themes/classic/css/custom.css and add "z-index: 201;" to #banner. This should solve this problem but after this I found more wrong styles in the portal.

The real reason for this issue (at least for me) is the default behaviour of IE8. It loads all intranet pages in compability mode. You can check the class at the html-tag. If it's "ie7" instead of "ie8" the page is loaded in compability mode. Then you need to change the settings for compability mode in IE8.

Hope this helps.
