This might be coincidence but since running strictly barefoot for the last two months, my IT band has been feeling much better. I am also probably jinxing myself writing this but it's true. I came across a article by Michael Sandler, and he mentioned how he always suffered ITB issues running in shoes, but once he started running barefoot it was cured.
I no longer get the pain in the knee, but during a medium long run my band still gets tight.
