Try out this example (but not in the jsfiddle, it currently doesn't work in conjunction with Raphael JS in the IE, download the files): http://jsfiddle.net/vprisivko/KEX7E/12/

The explanation is that IE doesn't provide you with valid mouseover/hover events for inner SVG elements. The probable workaround is about using Raphael JS API of callback function setting like http://raphaeljs.com/reference.html#Element.mouseover , what do you think?
