I, too, tried multiple different IE Tab versions in PM 28.2.2 w/o success. Then I finally stumbled onto the 'IE Tab 2' version available here, which worked well:

I agree that 'Open With' is a nice substitute, too, if you don't mind launching a separate browser. Anyway, I hope this is helpful & doesn't violate discussion rules.
