IE6 text selection issues

I am running into some weird problems with IE6 when I am trying to select text from the main div at http://mincovlaw.com/doc/canadacopyrightact. In IE6, I can only select the whole DIV at once, not line by line, like in other browsers.

No such problem exists in any IE7, FF3.6, Chrome 16 or Safari.

I did add some user-select: none;'s to a few divs on the page, but the same situation existed even before then.

Is there a simple fix to the problem? I would like to fix this for IE6 users, but not at the cost of revamping the whole layout.

My advice? Give up on IE6. Don't support it. IE6 is now less than 5% of the market (2% in some surveys). It's not worth the effort to maintain it.
