It works for me under IE6 / Windows XP SP2
What configuration are you using for test?

Also IE's conditional comments are working only for HTML and not for
external CSS files, so your last block in CSS file does nothing but
breaking your CSS table. See also

If you want IE-specific adjustments right in CSS table, use
expressions:

someElement {
width: 20em; /* default value */
width: expression(javascript code here) /* IE adjustment */
}

Of course not. IE specific conditionals in CSS are wrong not because
they are "theoretically wrong" or "should not be used" etc. They
simply do not work if they are not on HTML page. So your comments in
CSS file are not parsed and do nothing.
