Internet Explorer won't show normal bullets for UL

Been fighting to make unordered bullet lists work in IE via CSS. I'm not trying to do any custom images or Unicode characters, I'm just trying to use the standard "disc" type for the first-level UL's and the "circle" type for second-level ones. Of course it looks great in Firefox et al.Here's the relevant CSS (composite list from Firebug):\[code\]* { margin: 0; padding: 0;}ul { list-style-type: disc; list-style-position: inside;}li { display: list-item; margin-left: 2em; font-family: Arial; text-indent: -1em;}ul ul { list-style-type: circle;}ul ul li { margin-left: 3em;}\[/code\]In IE8, the bullets are invisible for the first 10 seconds after loading the page, then they become the generic couldn't-find-the-character square boxes:

In IE9, the top-level UL bullets look okay, but the second-level become can't-find-the-Unicode-character question marks:

Maybe I should call 911 myself, since this is making me nauseous!Can anyone suggest how I can get IE to show these bullets properly?
