This star html hack will set the fixed width for IE/6. Leave it in the 
CSS file. Or, if you prefer, put it in an IE/6 "conditional comment." It 
will work either way.
* html div#side {width:990px;} /* for IE/6 */

The division ( .manchet ) in the right column that has the float right 
images needs to be cleared for IE/6. Add this to the style sheet to do 
that (this will not adversely effect other browsers, so no need to put 
it in a CC):

.manchet:after
    {
    content: '.';
    display: block;
    height: 0;
    clear: both;
    visibility: hidden;
    }
.manchet {
    display: inline-block;
    }

IE/6 does not support this css selector:
a[href^="mailto:";]  {background-image:url(email000.png);}
IE/8, and IE/7, do support it and show your icons.
If it is necessary to have those two icons in IE/6 you'll need to feed 
them to it with a simple selector. Seems more trouble than it is worth 
(to me) for a browsers that is on "death row." But it is your call...

A static screen capture from browsershot will not show how the fonts 
scale. IETester only enables "page zoom," not font-scaling. To test the 
IEs for font-scaling on a native box or the standalone versions 
<http://tredosoft.com/IE7_standalone>.
In IE/6 it is: view>text size>largest. In IE 7/8 it is: page>text
