embed into HTML, internet explorer problem

Hi, I have been embedding krpano swf files into html using a very straightforward and easy way. It is working great on google chrome, but for some reason it is ignoring the 100% height on Internet Explorer (even the newest version) and just opening on the top part of the screen. The fullscreen button is working fine. Is there an easy workaround that doesn't involve changing many things and just keeping it clean and simple?

I just noticed that if I click on the "compatibility view" icon in Internet explorer, then it takes the 100% height although it keeps a 1/2 centimeter margin on all sides (dunno why).

(my tour has the xml embedded inside the swf, that's why i only call the swf file in using the embed command).
