IE6 doesn't respect given dimensions, and will auto-expand containers so
content fits inside - like in unrestricted HTML tables.

The addition of...
* html #menu, * html #maincenter, * html #mainright {
overflow-x: hidden;
}
...will give you some control, as IE6 will then respect the
percentage-width declared on those containers. The overflowing parts on
narrow windows, will of course be hidden in IE6.
