Problem with IE , Firefox displays website fine (blank space issue)

Hey guys , im working on a clan website and just half finished a prototype. However i encountered a problem . in the #content div i want the background to be fully covering the whole height of the div. In firefox it displays it exactly as i want but IE doesnt . it instead leaves space .

can u guys check this website in both IE and Firefox and tell me the problem.

clan website prototype (note: the images havnt been optimised yet ,so it may take a while to load)
