Hi Holly I've set the settings option as you suggested but the problem still exists. Other people are suggesting it's a factor of IE that cannot be resolved, so I guess I am going to have to live with it. Thanks anyway for your input.

IE goes and requests the image each time you move to another page using the navigation menu.

That would at least prevent the appearance of the white background when IE goes to request the image again. This will probably then show evidence of a 3-px jog problem on the right side of the content section.
