Hi Dwain,
The easy fix:
#nav {zoom:1;}
But that won't validate (and I know you want the styles sheet to validate), so
you may want to hide it inside a Conditional Comment or try any other property
that will trigger hasLayout in IE.
For example float will work too:
#nav {float:left;display:inline;}
display:inline is to prevent IE to double the left margin
