looks fine to me (Linux 2002021214), can you be a bit more specific?

[see screenshots]

In particular, note the two grey horizontal bars at the top of the page, the
doubled title bar on the main table, and the 8 <div> elements in the lower
middle of the page.

Evangelism, I think: the w3c Validator didn't like this page at ALL.

http://www.heroes.ag.ru/heroes.css contains the following CSS2 rule:
.id {position: fixed}

IE does not support CSS2, so it simply ignores the rule since it's unable to
render it.
Mozilla obeys that rule and lays the page out correctly.

To fix the page, that rule simply has to be removed from heroes.css

I suspect that the extra margin at the top of the page is due to this rule in
/mozilla/source/layout/html/document/src/forms.css
form {
  display: block;
  margin: 0 0 1em 0;
}

The doubled title bar is probably due to a mistake somewhere in that mess.

Over to Evangelism

To note that the page exhibits exactly the same broken behavior in Blink, in WebKit, in Gecko.
So it seems it's a Web site designed specifically for old IE. I wonder what it looks like in modern IE. A good candidate to move right away to http://webcompat.com/
