IE6 will get it right with this little addition:
--------
div.wrapper {width: 800px;}
--------
Delete "margin-top: 25px" on footer. No browser need it and it's
upsetting IE/win.

Improvements:
Change "height: 400px" on div.content, to:
--------
div.content {_height: 400px; min-height: 35em; }
--------
The page will be able to take slightly more stress this way.

You've got the font-size method wrong in IE/win.
Don't use small ems on body-- it's like asking IE/win to mess up upon
font-resizing.
You are well advised to use this instead:
--------
body {font: 100%/1.5    }
div.wrapper {font-size: 0.7em;}
--------
This will result in exactly the same font-size (as "medium"), with much
less extreme steps towards smaller and larger.

These corrections make the page look fairly identical in Opera, Firefox
and IE6. I don't have a Mac.


BTW: I'm unable to read much on your page with the colors and font-size
you are using now. Hope you'll make it slightly more usable...

regards
