New to the community, first time poster here. I'm at a loss as to what could be going on right now, so maybe you guys could give me some advice as to what's happening!

I've been having some troubles with a footer DIV for my site http://thekevbot.com

In IE8, for some reason it likes to creep up and cover important content such as the sidebar and main content. If I switch modes to Compatibility Mode, the DIV get's bumped down, but any transparent PNG images are displayed with a nasty black border around them.

Could anybody offer me any clues as to what the hell is going on? I'm going crazy here!
