HTML overlaps my scrollbar at some point in IE6+IE7

I have something to the effect of the below markup and I'm running into a problem with ie6 and ie7 where the td rides on top of the vertical scrollbar when I reduce the window size. Does anyone know why that is and how to fix it?

[HTML]
<HTML>
<HEAD></HEAD>
<FRAMESET>
<FRAME>
<HTML>
<BODY class="class1">
<DIV class="class2">
<DIV id="class3">
<TABLE class="class4" style="HEIGHT: 227px" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" width="100%" border="0">
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD class="class5">
....
</TD>
</TR>
</TBODY>
</TABLE>
</DIV>
</DIV>
</BODY>
</HTML>
</FRAME>
</FRAMESET>
</HTML>
[/HTML]

Just a question, but why are you using frames to begin with? And, is that the entire markup?

We have to use frames because we are hosting an activex control that must be available on all pages and we want to retain state of that control for each page that the user may want to navigate to so unfortunately not using frames is not an option. No this is not the whole markup but it contains the framework to the tag that actually seems to overlap the scrollbar. What isn't included is the css.

You aren't giving us anything to work with. The css is important. The html you show is just a standard skeleton of any web page.

You aren't using a doctype which puts IE into quirks mode so this could be part of the problem. See the article about doctypes under Articles above.

yeah, give us the CSS, and give IE a doctype... if giving IE the doctype doesn't fix anything then post the CSS, because using just what you gave me, with no CSS creates no problem...

@ panzermonkey: Why not use includes rather than frames? Frames can get pretty unpredictable, where includes are just as easy to manage and don't have the same problems as frames tend to create.

Anyway, could I see your CSS? If I could take a look at that, I might be able to help you figure out what the problem is. (:
