Should be:

BODY {background-image: url('images/Africa/IntranetBGmain.jpg');
    background-attachment: fixed;}

or

BODY {background: url('images/Africa/IntranetBGmain.jpg') fixed;}

Note that NS can have problems with body CSS if it is an external stylesheet
rather than in the head section. Also NS<6 doesn't accept the fixed property
(AFAICR).
