IE6 has trouble with window.history.go(). It works on regular links like this:

<a href='#' onclick='history.go(-1);'>Back!</a>

But some others won't work. You could try this:

<button onclick='history.go(-1);'>Back!</button>

But I'm not quite sure if that would work. You could also show a button for all other browsers and a link for IE:

<button id='backButton' onclick='history.go(-1);'>Back!</button>
<!--[if IE 6]>
    <script type='text/javascript'>
        document.getElementById('backButton').style.display = 'none';
    </script>
    <a href='#' onclick='history.go(-1);'>Back!</a>
<![endif]-->
