Can't get rid of 1px space for some reason

[SilentNoise]

Pretty much done a new style for my site, but there's a few little tweaks I still have to make.

This space that keeps showing up before the category title is becoming the bane of my friggin existence... something that should be so simple to fix, but nothing I do seems to get rid of it. It only shows up in Internet Exploder, and it's only on the forum's homepage.




Here's the "forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost" template code I'm using. If anyone has some insight for me, it'd be appreciated:

</table>

<br />

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
 <tbody>
  <tr>
   <td class="tcat-tl"></td>
   <td class="tcat" colspan="<if condition="$vboptions[showmoderatorcolumn]">6<else />5</if>">
    <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumbit_$forumid')"><img id="collapseimg_forumbit_$forumid" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat{$collapseimg_forumid}.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
    <a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]">$forum[title]</a>
    <if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><font class="smallfont">$forum[description]</font></if>
    <if condition="$show['subforums']"><div class="smallfont"><strong>$vbphrase[subforums]</strong>: <ul class="subforum">$forum[subforums]</ul></div></if>
   </td>
   <td class="tcat-tr"></td>
  </tr>
 </tbody>
</table>
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center" id="collapseobj_forumbit_$forumid" style="{$collapseobj_forumid}">
 <tbody>
  <tr align="center">
   <td class="thead" width="5%">&nbsp;</td>
   <td class="thead" width="45%" align="$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
   <td class="thead" width="30%">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
   <td class="thead" width="10%">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
   <td class="thead" width="10%">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
  </tr>
 </tbody>
 <if condition="$childforumbits">
  <tbody>
   $childforumbits
  </tbody>
 </if>
</table>
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center">
 <tr>
  <td>
   <div class="bcat-bl">
   <div class="bcat">
   <div class="bcat-br">
   </div></div></div>
  </td>
 </tr>
