Probably you are requesting for an external resource, this case IE needs the XDomain object. See the sample code below for how to make ajax request for all browsers with cross domains:

Tork.post = function (url,data,callBack,callBackParameter){
    if (url.indexOf("?")>0){
        data = url.substring(url.indexOf("?")+1)+"&"+ data;
        url = url.substring(0,url.indexOf("?"));
    }
    data += "&randomNumberG=" + Math.random() + (Tork.debug?"&debug=1":"");
    var xmlhttp;
    if (window.XDomainRequest)
    {
        xmlhttp=new XDomainRequest();
        xmlhttp.onload = function(){callBack(xmlhttp.responseText)};
    }
    else if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
        xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
    else
        xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
    xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
    {
        if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200){
            Tork.msg("Response:"+xmlhttp.responseText);
            callBack(xmlhttp.responseText,callBackParameter);
            Tork.showLoadingScreen(false);
        }
    }
    xmlhttp.open("POST",Tork.baseURL+url,true);
    xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
    xmlhttp.send(data);
}
