mlf doesn't keep me logged in (IE6)

When I log in to this forum with IE6SP1, I usually check "Log me in automatically on this computer". If I close IE and open it again, then I'm logged out. :-( Yes, I can see a valid cookie with, e.g., IECookiesView.

IE6 is really a nasty beast.
My IE6SP2 (XP Pro SP2 patched) keeps me logged in, but after opening the browser again and navigating to your post the viewport looked like this (left and right part)... :-D

In between these two parts there's no text to be seen, just background, of course. If I move around with the left mouse-button pressed, the text of the post appears again - miraculously...

Just click "Desktop anzeigen" ("Show desktop") in "Schnellstart" ("Quick Launch") bar twice. ;-)

Does it work for you?

I'm sure!
The problem is, that I wasn't successful reproducing it. I've noticed the 'hidden text' already some months ago, but only rarely. So I didn't care. Today I played a little bit around (clearing cache, login, close IE, blabla,...), but I wasn't able to reproduce it...
I wouldn't bother too much.
Actually I don't use IE regularily, so testing with this piece of ... always brings me close to [image] ing.

Another point (attention: thread shift phenomenon!): since 2.x uses relative font sizes in CSS (Yippee!), we end up with the well known effect that every IE below v7 has its own ideas about the meaning of

body { font-size: 100.1%; }

So the site looks simply ugly to me.
What I use in my forum is a conditional comment in the <head> of the template, namely:

<!--[if (gte IE 5.5)&(lt IE 7)]>
  <style type="text/css">
    body { font-size:83%; }
  </style>
<![endif]-->

What do you think?

Hm..., what I see with the different IE versions is quite similar (there just seem to be some differences between the line heights):
