IE6 can't figure out how wide a 5% padding on body is at first run, and
settles for a new value once re-rendering is triggered by hovering on
any mainMenu link.
IE6' calculation-bugs can never be fixed perfectly, but it'll be a lot
easier for IE/win to calculate margins than paddings and it doesn't
matter to other browsers. So changing from 'padding: 5%' to 'margin: 5%'
on body, will reduce jumping to a minimum.
