Microsoft will manage a list of websites that are allowed to display Flash content: "(..) only sites that are on the Compatibility View (CV) list for Flash can play Flash content within Internet Explorer 10 in the Windows Metro style UI"

  Are there problems with the current Apache Flex home page when used
