It's pretty late over here, and I only brushed over the stuff but

#navcontainer
{
float: left;
width: 199px;
border-right: 1px solid #B4D3DC;
padding: 0 0 1em 0;
margin-bottom: 1em;
font-family: Verdana, Lucida, Geneva, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
/*background-color: #99CCCC;*/
background: #C7E4E6;
color: #333;
}

I think your problem has a bit to do with the box model manhandling of IE6's
engine. When you're using specified witdths in your CSS, be careful about
also specifying the padding -- it'll break lots of stuff in IE. Can get
around with Tantek's V-F hack
(http://www.tantek.com/CSS/Examples/boxmodelhack.html) or just avoid using
width+padding in block elements.

under #navigation li a, I don't think you should need a width:100% .. li
will fill up the space they reside in horizontally unless limited by a
max-width/width.
