The scroll bars are coming fro the overflow: auto; in you stylesheet on the #wrapper div. The reason it's problem i IE6 is because of the way IE6 calculates width/padding/margins. The easy way to avoid issues is to not set both width and padding/margin/borders. Obviously that isn't alway realistic.  My suggestion to you is to look at your columns and their padding/margins and see if that clears it up. If not I would recommend using IE conditional comments and adding the styles for IE6 in there.

Let me know if that helps.
