Had the same problem and this solved it for me:

html
{
    overflow: auto;
}

From your CSS:

body {
    background-color:black;
    background-image:url(../images/contentbg.jpg);
    background-repeat:repeat-x;
    height:536px;
    background-position:top left;
    color:white;
}

try adding overflow-x: hidden; and possibly also width: 100%;

or try adding

html{
     width:100%;
     overflow-x: hidden;
    }

play around with these, the right combination should make it work OK.

It looks like your CSS has several things with large widths or margins which could be invisibly going off the side of the page - most likely a positioning difference between IE and other browsers.

In firefox, the firebug addon allows you to inspect all the elements of your page. If there's something like that for IE it should help you identify the offending element. Otherwise, maybe try setting all borders to a width of 1 pixel with various colours to try to highlight which element is sitting out there.
