It is an IE bug that is corrected in IE7.

That is a nice simple way to go about it.
Create a separate stylesheet and save it as style4ie.css (or whatever
you like).
Save the the ie specific correction in it, for example:
#foo { border: 1px solid #f1f1f1; }
Link the style4ie.css stylesheet within 'conditional comments.'
Add this ie specific stylesheet directly below your stylesheet for all
browsers.
Only win/ie6 and down will see the solid border:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" />
<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style4ie.css" type="text/css" />
