<applet height="100%"> causes vertical scrollbar in IE. Why/how to avoid?
Why does this create a veritcal scrollbar in IE6, IE7 and IE8? How to avoid it?
(I had a real applet in there, but I discovered that this heavily mutilated one gave the same result and helps simplify the test case)

<style>
HTML, BODY {
height: 100%;

BODY {
padding:0;
margin:0;
}
/* And yes I can use this, but I'd rather not
BODY {
overflow-y: hidden;
}
*/
</style>

<body>
<APPLET WIDTH = "100%" HEIGHT = "100%"></APPLET>

display: block;

To prevent rendering the applet as an inline-element, which enforces line-height rendering.
Add position: absolute;
to the applet's style.
Try bringing the height down to 99% or 98%. Or try throwing in some more thorough reset CSS. Don't ever use overflow-y on a body element. Terrible usability.
Thing 1 -- CSS/overflow
Here are the CSS settings you can work with (if they help): http://www.w3schools.com/Css/pr_pos_overflow.asp
Thing 2 -- CSS-erize the scrollbar itself (i.e., turn it completely white, or whatever works for your page.: http://www.draac.com/css/csstricks.html (scroll down a ways)
