The problem is known as margin-doubling in IE/win.
"display: inline" will fix that in your case.

On top of that you have also made it a bit tight in there, so IE/win
will drop the main column on narrow window.
A small negative back-margin on the float will help.

This should make it hold in IE/win, until the window gets really narrow.
Put it at the bottom of your stylesheet.

@media all {
* html div.blockRight {display: inline; margin-left: -3%;}
}
