Thanks to some quick feedback I've made these changes in an effort to become
better friends with IE:

* 'overflow:hidden' commented out from IE5/Mac (within 'base.css') - to try
and address missing banner image
* added 'zoom:1' (on #quotes div within 'iewin.css') to try and give
'layout' to sidebar which was being pushed down below other float

How do I look now ;-)

Some good accessbility / link issues were also pointed out that I should be
able to address shortly.

Thanks again for the help!
Clayton
