Add...
#container, #main, #homehead {position: static;}
....and may also have to restyle positioning for...
#hdrtopborder, #hdrbotborder, #hcontlhsep, #hcontlhmidsep,
#hcontrhmidsep, #hcontrhsep, #hcontbotborder
#hdrrhborder, #hcontrhborder, #contlhsep, #contmidsep, #contrhsep
....in the CC for IE6.
What the "'fixed positioning' fix for IE6" article does not mention is
that _all_ 'absolute' or 'relative' positioned elements are affected by
the "fix". This tends to make the "fix" fail in IE6 initially, but with
a bit of careful restyling of _interfering_ positioning you _can_ make
it work - for most layouts.
