Are you using IE8 in InPrivate mode?

There is a bug in IE8 which causes cross-domain HTTP requests using the XDomainRequests object to fail when the user is browsing in InPrivate Browsing mode (See http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ieinternals/archive/2010/05/13/xdomainrequest-restrictions-limitations-and-workarounds.aspx).

I myself have worked around this by using jQuery's $.get() method. If you're not using jQuery in your website, you might want to go through jQuery's source code to investigate how they've worked around this as they apparently have managed to do this.
