What you are looking at:
This is the footer area of a page I am working on. Above to the left is the navigation pane in a lighter grey, and to the right is the main content area.
As you can see in the image below, my divs somehow show this white/black area beneath my footer/ main content area / and navigation. This ONLY SHOWS in Internet Explorer!. How can I get rid of it?

Here's my code:
<html>
<head>
<style>
font.small {font-size:14px; text-align:right; float:right; line-height: 110%;}
font.grey {font-size:14px; text-align:right; float:right; color:#C0C0C0; line-height: 110%;}
font.mid {font-size:16px; text-align:right; float:right; line-height: 110%;}
font.large {font-size:20px; text-align:right; float:right; line-height: 110%; font-weight:bold;}
font.normal {font-size:14px; text-align:right; float:right; line-height: 125%;}
lineheight {line-height: 120%;}
hr.thick {color: #000066;background-color: #000066;height: 3px;}
hr.thin {color: #000066;background-color: #000066;height: 1px;}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="container" style="width:581px;">
