Strange space below <div> in IE6

Greetings --

I'm getting a strange space below a header <div> that is between the
header and the menu bar on a site I'm working on. It shows up fine in
Safari, but IE6 on a PC just doesn't like it. Is there something I'm
missing here? It seems the space is contained inside the header
(discovered after putting a border around the header).

test css: http://thelessels.com/test/style.css

Thanks!

I've checked this in IE6 and Firefox 0.8, and I see no difference. I'm
not sure what space you mean. Either it is not here, or I simply don't
know what you are referring to. Since I don't have a Mac, I might need
to see screenshots comparing the two, if you can manage that.

BTW, what's with the microfonts? I've configured my browser for a
reason, and don't particular enjoy reconfiguring it for your site.

Change
<div id="header">
<img src="images/summer/title.jpg"
alt="thelessels.com" />
</div>

To
<div id="header">
<img src="images/summer/title.jpg"
alt="thelessels.com" /></div>

cheers,
Steve
