Take a look at all the errors generated by your page, you should notice quite a few. I think your page is relying on how Firefox reacts to your errors, where IE reacts differently.

61 Errors:

W3 xhtml Validator

Also, I might note that your page seems to have an excess of ads, and minimal actual content space.

Good Luck,

It works for IE now. But I agree that it has way to much ad space. If you could flip the ads on the right so they are vertical and cut the extra space out I think it would look much better. Just my $0.02

Only 33 Errors now! Good! Keep it up, as the closer you are to standards compliance, the better you site should work!

And I second that it works much nicer with IE now!

Well, first continue working out the xhtml errors, as they can't help.

In order to rework the page, first I would move the subscribe and search bars to the top of the page, before it divides, and add breaks between the sponsors adds. Play around with it, because it can look quite terrible when the page is only 20% content...

Good Luck,
