Most likely an encoding issue. IE is pretty strict about what encodings it will accept. Try switch the $.get out for a $.ajax call and log the error message.

$.ajax({
  url: 'getforums.php',
  dataType: 'text',
  data: {},
  success: function(data) {
    console.log(data);
  },
  error: function(XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
    console.log(textStatus, errorThrown);
  }
});
