Looks to me like IE is insanely broken with all those nested
font/font-size: XX% rules cascading through a quirks-mode rendering to
itty bitty teensy text on the sidebars

To try to figure it out, I reduced your CSS to just these impacting font
sizes (other than in the footer):
body,
html {font: bold small Verdana, Arial, sans-serif}
div#body div#news div#feature h3.author,
div#body div#news div.entry h3.date {font: bold italic 1.2em Arial,
Verdana, sans-serif;}
div#body div#news div#feature p,
div#body div#news div.entry p {font-size: 110%;}
div#body div#news div.entry li {font-size: 110%;}
div#body div#news div.entry div.signature {font-size: 100%;}
div#body div div.menu {font-size: 80%;}
div#body div .hnavlinks {font: bold 160% Arial, Verdana, sans-serif;}
div#body div#navigation form#poll ul li.numvotes,
div#body div#navigation form#poll ul li.result {font-size: 0.8em}
div#body div#updates li {font-size: 90%;}
div#body div#updates ul li h3 {font-size: 110%;}
There's so many apparently affecting the same text it makes my head swim
trying to figure it out, even with the help of Domi, which ultimately
says that the text in body div#body div#feature/div.menu div.navlinks p
(I think) is computing to 76% of my default. BTW, here's what your net
76% in p "size" actually means (in standards-mode in a
standards-compliant browser):
