Weird non-clickable zone

Mozilla not playing well - neither is IE, but for different reasons

I've just been hacking around with my site after converting it into using wordpress. So I've started off with the wordpress css template. Now I have a site that is both xhtml and css compliant, but has a strange nonclickable zone in Mozilla.

Anything on the left portion of the screen can't be clicked - links, post titles, and text boxes for the comments. A certain way across the screen, everything becomes fine again.

The clicking thing isn't a problem at all when viewing the site in IE. (However in IE the display isn't cool at all, but I want to get the site working in Mozilla first)

I don't have any idea as to what's causing the non-clickable region, if anyone can make any suggestions, that would be great, as I'm not looking forward to tearing the whole thing apart bit by bit again.

Site is at:

I've actually solved this problem now. For the record, it was done by changing how the menu was positioned. I had positioned it entirely using margins, which left a 'ghost menu' on the left hand side of the main body. Nothing could be clicked where the ghost menu lay. I changed it to absolute positioning.
