What is the URL that illustrates the problem, and how does it relate to
CSS?

It is not empty. Do you mean that it _should_ be empty, as in your
original posting? There is really no need for that. If you don't have a h2
heading, don't write one; assign an id="..." attribute to some other
element instead. (Headings are just _natural_ targets for links.)
Besides, IE can handle empty anchors. As I mentioned, your markup,
expanded trivially to an HTML document, works on IE. Some browsers have
had problems with empty anchors, but this depends on complex issues and
isn't really a CSS issue (except perhaps fairly indirectly: such problems
mostly emerge when tables are used, and switching from a layout table to
CSS-based layout may remove the problem).

No, it's an internal IE thing. And _it_ is a CSS issue, but why do you
think it relates to the problem at all?
