Default IE invisible cover over a column

I have a website with a two column layout.

Everything is fine, got most of my cross browser issues sorted but have
discovered a major bug that I cannot fix (in IE shock horror).

The news column on the right cannot be clicked on whatsoever - I think
that one of my divs must be covering it for some reason.

Can anyone suggest a fix?

demo site is up at http://007.e-connected.com/

Thanks in advance.

Rick

On a side-note: when you click directly on the fold-outs "Our Process"
and "Services" you respectively get a *.php file listing and a 404.

Thanks - just a test site though so most of the pages aren't actually
there.

Unfortunately, I can't help you with this, I can't seem to recreate the
problem locally.
As your using several scripts the problem could be there, allthough it
doesn't seem like it.

You might want to duplicate the page, and then go to work according to this:
http://www.positioniseverything.net/...s/mys-bug.html
Try to reduce your code as much as possible, while still keeping the bug.
After nothing can be deleted anymore without 'breaking' the bug, you'll
either have found the problem, or you'll have a very small code which is
easier to plough through for us readers.

Two pieces of advice about the layout: First of all don't forget to set the
background-color. It's a very ugly green here. Second is that the navigation
in the top right corner might not be the best idea. People scan pages in an
F-like pattern, and are used to navigation on the top or to the left. While
completely valid, and not unpleasent to look at, people might find
navigation on the top right awkward.
