I think I got the giant white box fixed... I added display: block and position: relative; to a few divs then I had to change the z-index on a couple of other items to compensate. This caused a couple of other problems to develop in safari but I think I have got it.

I do see two issues. 1) The png images are not displayed properly. This is a common problem with IE6. There are known methods for handling png in IE6. Me, I'm a coward. I just use gif and jpg. 2) There is a 10 px margin between the light brown background content box and the darker brown border like line. For me, given my attitude about folks still using IE 6 in the light of current hyper-security risks, I would just pretend that I wanted the 10px margin at the bottom of the page. And let the IE6 users have a slightly different viewer experience. If this is a job for a client try browbeating them into upgrading to IE8 <grin>. Given the ultra weirdness of Wordpress/Addon css handling. I would try saving the document onto your hard-drive using something like the Firefox save complete document. Then you can edit the page removing stuff bit by bit until you isolate the problem without the extra complexity of potential cross interactions between different style sheets. If your "giant white box" is a different effect than I am seeing in my particular IE6, perhaps you could point to an image displaying the behavior.
