Thank you Georg and Roger for your help.
I have incorporated your recommendations into
http://www.availcompany.com/webdev/webcode/css_test4.htm as follows:
1. Per Georg added:
* html div#column2 {height: 100%;}
* html div#column2 table {float: left; margin-right: -10px;}
2. per Gerog and Roger, Removed the clearing-div, and added #footer
{clear: both;}. Do you still think I do not need .clearfix even though
threecolwrap wraps three left floated columns?
3. Per Georg, I am reading about 'em resizing bug'[1] in IE/win.

The short answer: IE/win has calculation-bugs. 100% isn't always 100%.
The quick solution, add...
* html div#column2 {height: 100%;}
* html div#column2 table {float: left; margin-right: -10px;}
...which will provide some space for IE to put its bugs without messing
up the layout.

It isn't.
Remove the clearing-div, and add...
#footer {clear: both;}
---
Note: you should also add...
html {font-size: 100%;}
...to avoid the 'em resizing bug'[1] in IE/win.
regards
Georg
