Eh something is wrong with my layout! Bahhh.

I cant see the words at the left hand corner if I use the old IE with no tabs. I think works fine on the new IE. Definitely no problems viewing from my Mac. Hur. Then when I decide to change the layout, all my side-bar widgets go straight down to hell the bottom!

I have no say whatsoever with the HTML coding. Guuuuhh. Help.

Anyone got any suggestions? =
