Hi Sami,

Your DTD is putting the page into quirks mode. That seems to be
triggering some kind of stacking bug in IE. 

The easiest solution seems to be to insert a proper DTD into your
document. Something like:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
        "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd";>

If left in quirks mode you can also fix the problem by doing any one of
the following:

- Removing the float rule on DIV.tabs
- Wrapping #left with a DIV 
- absolutely position the IMG element rather than #left
