Error in xhtml DTD

I copyed the example found at the W3C XHTML site:
http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/PR-xhtml1-19990824/

Which looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/strict" xml:lang="en"
lang="en">
  <head>
    <title>Virtual Library</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <p>Moved to <a href="http://vlib.org/">vlib.org</a>.</p>
  </body>
</html>

But when I tried to run it under IE5, I got the following error:

Error while parsing entity 'lt'. A declaration was not closed. Line 1,
Position 1

Since I'm just learning xml and xhtml, I cannot give a better report,
sorry.
