[css-d] Page jumps when links clicked - why?

Why, especially in IE6, do the pages (the content of the page, not the beans) "jump" when I click on the links? In Safari and FF for the Mac, the Investor page moves over. What am I doing wrong, or what have I missed? http://mdh-test.com/sips http://mdh-test.com/sips.css Thank you in advance.
