Anyone have first hand experience with IE6 and it's many bugs?

I'm trying to compile a list of them and since I'm not going to upgrade to it, have to rely on what I can find around the web.

have a few things already

DOC type issues
nested tables issues
including javascript files

any HTML, XHTML or CSS issues wanted, and work arounds if known

Thanks

Nothing is perfect, but IE6 has given me no additional problems compared to IE5 or Mozilla, Opera, etc. In fact, I recently read about how insecure Mozilla actually is on SecurityFocus and CNET.

True nothing is perfect, they all have bugs, Opera6 has a habit of crashing for no reason, mozilla has issues ...
was just wanting to list some for people having problems since I don't use IE6

one of the biggest work arounds is to not use the <?xml> tag above the DOC tag or IE wont render the DOC tag. use the meta tag to do the same.
