One "fix" that works somewhat in IE6 is to _delete_ all relevant
'width:auto; height:auto;' from the stylesheet.

By simply _not_ telling IE6 anything about an image's dimension, IE6
tends to focus more on what the image's real, intrinsic, dimensions are
and since it doesn't get "distracted" by CSS it'll get it right _almost_
every time.

Other browsers won't care about "auto" anyway - you may say they ignore
it when both dimensions are "auto" because then the declared dimensions
don't relate to anything but each actual image's intrinsic size - same
as if no "auto" is declared anywhere. Thus, no ill effect by deleting
the 'width:auto; height:auto;' from the stylesheet.
