internet explorer 8 - Loading bootstrap font .eot in IE8 -


here's font-face declaration in customized bootstrap.css :

@font-face { font-family: 'glyphicons halflings'; src: url('../../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot'); src: url('../../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'), url('../../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.woff') format('woff'), url('../../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.ttf') format('truetype'), url('../../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.svg#glyphicons_halflingsregular') format('svg'); } 

all these bootstrap fonts reside in virtual machine (192.168.137.4). when loading page, ie8 requires font download, whereas there's no problem every other browser (chrome, firefox , ie9,10,11).

when tried replace ../../ cdn links these fonts (for example : https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.2/fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot) worked in ie8 still need load them local.

please advise, missing/what needs changed fix issue?
