Add...

#container, #main, #homehead {position: static;}

...and may also have to restyle positioning for...

#hdrtopborder, #hdrbotborder, #hcontlhsep, #hcontlhmidsep,
#hcontrhmidsep, #hcontrhsep, #hcontbotborder

#hdrrhborder, #hcontrhborder, #contlhsep, #contmidsep, #contrhsep

...in the CC for IE6.

What the "'fixed positioning' fix for IE6" article does not mention is
that _all_ 'absolute' or 'relative' positioned elements are affected by
the "fix". This tends to make the "fix" fail in IE6 initially, but with
a bit of careful restyling of _interfering_ positioning you _can_ make
it work - for most layouts.
