You already got an answer on that. I don't have IE win at hand to  
check my self exactly what it does.
To add to Michael Geary's answer:
'position:relative' doesn't trigger the 'hasLayout' IE property by  
itself. Other triggers are needed. Whenever you use  
'position:relative', it is a good idea to trigger 'hasLayout', before  
IE goes wrong.
In your case, you need to establish a containing box, otherwise the  
wide tables cause the content to drop. That is what the 'hasLayout'  
property will do

This article goes more in depth on all those IE problems

Assuming you mean this page
<http://maximumrobotics.com/store/>
It does exactly what it should do (in Firefox and any other modern  
browser).
.cbWhatsNewEven is set to 'clear:right', it clears the big image on  
the right.
make your window smaller and you should see the box shrink.
