 * It’s a CSS issue: IE cannot handel decimals.
 * Search in your CSS for
 *     ```
       .countdown_show4 .countdown_section {
       	width: 24.5%;
       ```
   
 * Change the “24.5%” to “24%” and it will work!

 * thanks for the workaround,
    I already found a workaround myself, simply removed
   all borders and margins from one of the elements and now it looks ok, just wanted
   to bring this issue to the plugin author’s attention so it can be fixed in the
   next version.
