I don't have access to IE, but I did look at your screenshot.

The background is specified on a div element that has a height of 800px
specified.  Content is contained within a table below this div element.  In
both Firefox and Safari the div element is 800px high as specified in the CSS,
while the page appears to expect the div to expand to accommodate the table
within.

The source contains the following comment which is a good indication to me that
the site is designed to render in IE's old non-standards-compliant mode,
suggesting that the site is expecting non-standard behaviour:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7">
