IE (used to have|has) a problem with this (it's supposed to be transparent when the background color is missing AFAIK)[*], but the fall-back color should be grey (or white or checkered dark-grey light-grey), not black, so it's definitely a software-problem. [*] Unless it is a picture-viewer-program like for picture-galleries etc, where the canvas-color of the program should not affect the picture, hence use of the fall-back color. IE (were|is) obviously a picture-viewer/ plugin-launcher gizmo and not a web-browser, hence the error. t.
