I found the following post written by Bruce Lawson. He has some good advice on how one should avoid using CSS Hacks and rather go for solutions that will not cause issues when browsers suddenly decide to fix their CSS quirks. A good example of this is using an IE specific override stylesheet instead of the TanTek or other hacks:

<!--[if IE]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="IE.css" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->
<!--[if lte IE 6]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="IEbugs.css" type="text/css" />
<![endif]-->

The appeal to de-hack web sites was also made of the Microsoft IE weblog, so we should all watch out for problems that might arise with our sites when IE 7 is released to the public (particularly if we are not using Quirks mode).
