Layout in IE6 [#302270]

Im running a site on an adapted version of Multiflex 3, which has some layout difficulties with two columns.
To be sure it wasn't something I messed up, i reinstalled the orignial Multiflex 3 theme, and found out that its the same thing.
The page goes awol to the bottom of the window using ie6, escaping focus.
I have a two column layout, see attaches, the first about being on the bottom, and the secon about the columns.

what can i do to fix this?

okay, its been reduced to the foldoutmenus not working in ie6, and when there is a wide table in the body, the right sidebar is being transplanted to the bottom of the page. not too critical.

Check my footnote (http://edin.no-ip.com/about-me/projects/multiflex3#how-about-browser-sup...):

Finally, most people asking of a complete Internet Explorer 6 support as well... IE6 is always buggy and need special handling. It even give a wrong rendering result for margin and padding, buggy with PNG, crazy RTL support, and so on. I am not going to support IE6 officially. My IE6 on hand is even a multiple install version (i.e. can run besides IE7, which means it is not a totally clean IE6 as they share part of the libraries...). If it looks fine in IE6, let's thanks god; or else, please contribute your solution and I will try my best to include them.

That's what I comment for IE6; so what even if we are talking about IE5!? For primary links it is already for sure not function with IE6, too (http://edin.no-ip.com/about-me/projects/multiflex3#i-like-the-cascade-pr...)
