I would add some color to the header and change the background
Actually the original design had more color and a different background but the corporate branding team had that removed along with other aspects of color and style. Now they want to remove all product pics from front pages, use only dark generic pics and, in my opinion, continue to make the site look worse.
About the people i mentioned having trouble seeing the site in IE9, that issue has been resolved. Starting IE9 without addons worked fine. Then we turned the addons back on and it continued to work fine.
