Probably the height of a table there.
Nothing FF can do about it because height is no legal table property.

INVA ?

(needless to say MSN is written with just IE in mind)

Mozilla/Firefox have always supported the "height" attribute (and CSS "height"
property) on tables.

The page looks fine to me (Firefox 1.0 and Mozilla trunk on Linux).
What are your Font Preference settings?
Do you allow the document to use its specified fonts?
Do you have a Minimal font size set?

Between FF and MSIE, the two sites loook the same in the area you described,
with no descrepancies.

Look at green or gold MSN search band at top of web page. Look towards the left
near the MSN butterfly. Above picture in middle column. Thanks.
