You mean you want end-users to have to use two scrolling-mechanisms in
order to view your content? May look nice on your screen(-size), but
won't fit anywhere else and is definitely not very user-friendly.
Generally: you either work with browsers to make things work well for
end-users, or you turn their own browsers against them and turn the
users away. It's your choice.

Enlighten me...
Both Firefox 3 and IE7 have both text-resizing and page zoom. For your
page both resizing options work the same.
Text-resizing will always expand test, and the containers for text must
be allowed to expand or the text will overflow.
If you want to cap/control height, it'll soon start looking ugly.
IE6 will also be hard to control, since it doesn't respect declared
dimensions and can only resize text.

Note that I've used 'float: left' on those images to make them align.
Add...
.introimage p {clear: left;}
...to get the entire paragraph below image and into view.
I think you have made bad use of margins and text-indent on paragraphs
though, and it is this combination with the start of the text pulled
outside the paragraph proper that makes IE go buggy and push images and
text around.
