Cause: a 130px margin from below is added to the right of the floating
'header IMG#logo', and IE/win doesn't respect 'width' set in stylesheet.
Result: container becomes 130px too wide.

Solution: 'clear' first element below 'header IMG#logo', or "unfloat"
'header IMG#logo' itself.

The same 'clear' is needed for a 'padding-top' to work.

One possible solution to both problems...

#header_contact_msg {
clear: both; /* will fix IE, and make 'padding-top' work */
padding-top: 100px; /* probably too much, so adjust to taste */
     width: 500px;
     margin: 0 130px 0px 130px;
     text-align: left;
}
