IE is notorious for skipping parent width and using grandparent width
for box size calculations. I'd suggest wrapping the table in yet
another div. Also move the width="100%" and border="1" out of the html
and into the css. Also run your html and css through a validation
service. It will catch things like the extra */ at the end of your
#twocolwarp ruleset.

I don't have the answer to the misbehaving .clearfix problem off the
top of my head, but you don't need it or the extra markup. Just add
clear: both; to div#footer and it should be fine. Unless you need the
clearfix rules elsewhere on your site, I'd remove them too. Removing
unused code is one of the first steps to being able to figure out what
is going on when you come back to this site next year.
