Note: I basically "just looked" and didn't get involved in playing with this 
site. You've got so many style sheets and scripts, both embedded and external, 
that I kind of got "the willies" about trying to set up a local page and didn't 
do it.

Don't know which navigation you're speaking of here, as I believe I'm seeing 
all of them in IE6.

It looks like something is pushing that rounded box wider in IE6 than in the 
other browser I compared it to. Check things that have {width: 100%;} within 
that box, and see if removing the width helps. You can also "mystery bug" it - 
http://www.positioniseverything.net/articles/mys-bug.html - cutting out parts 
of the HTML or CSS to see if you can locate what it is that's pushing things 
wider (assuming it is getting wider). Additionally, check any IE-specific hacks 
you have added to see if they are causing the problem.

#pageupdate {background-color: white;} - (or #fff) should target that 
paragraph, that is, assuming that's the paragraph you want to target.

It looks like a manifestation of the "Magik Creeping Text" bug -  
http://www.positioniseverything.net/explorer/creep.html - again, I didn't test, 
just looked.

I hope a little of this helps, and sorry that I wasn't able to test.

ps - there is also some strange javascript error that occurs on the - 
http://new.jocolibrary.org/ - page. No matter where I click on the page, when I 
release the mouse button, I get an alert box saying that there is an error on 
the page. I'm pretty sure it's interferring with some aspects of using the 
page, such as using those dropdowns. Yes, I have IE tell me about script 
errors.
