The solution I use to solve that is something like this:
<div class="wrap">
<div class="content">You contend div here!</div>
</div>
then have:
.wrap {text-align: center;}
.content {text-align: left; width: 550px; margin: 0 auto;}
that centers is for all browsers. (from memory, I rarely need this anymore.

It's been a while since I've had to include support for IE5 (and how
great that feels), but I'm pretty sure your problem is the use of
margin:0 auto; for centering -- if I remember correctly, IE < 6
doesn't understand it.
You can do:
position:relative;
width: 550px;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -225px;
