Thank you. I was mostly wondering if there was any known issues with overflow:hidden; with IE6 and 7.
This issue existed with the static html pages from the designer that did validate and an uncompressed stylesheet. This site is a CMS system which caused most of the validation errors. The biggest thing about the CMS system is how little control the front end developer has both in code that the CMS system develops and code that content developers use to add the content areas.
