Page is a not externally linkable

However When the page is longer than the viewable area and you need to scroll down the page I scroll as far down as I can but I can't see the footer or else I can just see the very tips of the top of the footer text, it's below the viewable area and I can't figure out how to stop this happening, the code below is the page and css, if you are testing it you will need to add enough text where it says LOTS OF TEXT to make the page scroll then the proble should Occur this only effects Internet Explorer 6 Any help would be great
When the page is smaller than the viewable area you can see the footer which is good
