Equivalent to text-shadow in IE

Question

I have this in my CSS:

body.transparent {
    background-color: transparent;
    color: #ffffff;
    text-shadow: 0 -1px #000, 1px 0 # 000, 0 1px #000, -1px 0 # 000;
}
body.transparent a {
    text-shadow: none;
}

But it doesn't work on IE. How do it solve this? Is there any equivalent for IE?
