This is a known issue, with no known solution as of yet. IE9 blocks script execution from twitter.com, simply because the returned script does not have the correct MIME type assigned to it. Unfortunately, this is not something we can fix on our end.

@Brandon: If you are looking for a good alternative I would recommend ‘Twitter Widget Pro’:

@Syahir: ‘Twitter Widget Pro’ seems to be working when using IE9, what is that widget doing differently then the Graphene Twitter widget? (maybe you can find an answer in their code?)

@Ricardo, we prolly just have to wait just a wee bit longer: https://dev.twitter.com/discussions/1232

Looks like Twitter has fixed this.
