getting EOT font to appear

I have installed a new font "X" as both x.eot and x.ttf in the css folder for HotFurniture.
I added the @font- info in the template.css file and it works for chrome, firefox etc.
When Explorer attempts to follow its URL it displays the default Arial instead.

Am I missing a piece of code for IE to use the font, other than the correct path to the eot.
I have followed the exact same code as GeoSans uses in this template.
DO I need to add the font to some other list that Microsoft uses inside the template?

Thanks,

When browser can not use font source it reverts to next one you put in list

font-family:"SpaceFont", sans-serif;

and if you don't specify it explicitly in will use inheritance to determent what font to use which is Arial in your case.

IE can use .eot so you font is probably locked. You can use this site to re-factor fonts and remove restrictions :

that is on your legal responsibility! You need to check terms under which you are allowed to use that font.
