Since content can't overflow in MSIE/PC, the sidebar
is expanding horizontally, even in normal text size.


Two elements pay responsibility for it.


1) The table with the calendar expands horizontally in MSIE.

#wp-calendar {
        border: 1px solid #ddd;
        empty-cells: show;
         margin-right: -5em; <=== add this
         position: relative; <=== and this
        width: 99%;
        font-size: 0.9em;
}


2) The text grows up and shrinks over-proportional on list-elements
    (In MSIE/PC only).

#sidebar ul {
        list-style-type: none;
        padding: 5px;
        margin: 0;
         font-size: .9em;        <=== remove this [1]
        background-color: #fff;
        border:#A1A4AA 1px solid;
}


[1] Set a font size to #sidebar instead, if you need.

P.S.
I'm working since a couple of months with WP and I've had the
same problems with it.

Btw. You are using the wrong doctype. WP is a mixture of HTML 3.2
(HTML 4 ?) with style sheets and slashes, but it never is XHTML.
There are a lot of inline-javascripts using '<' and '/', which is
not allowed in XHTML, amongst dozens of other things.
