One of the two images is not in its own cell but two in one column.

Adrian, the table width is 685 px, but the the both images + the first td are
686 px, therefore it moves the image down. You can try this out by changing the
first image:s width to 362 or remove the   from the first td.

IE and Opera are expanding the table instead. I don't know what is correct here.

this is the famous <img><img> nowrap hack (see bug 97619 for the not so glory
details), it should work if
a) you remove the div and put the align on the td, I don't see the use of it
anyway as the table is overconstrained, this requires that you keep a quirks
mode doctype as you have now. 
b) you give the table enough space
c) what is the first td exactly doing other than misaligning the banner with
respect to ad below on the left, removing it would also help

So Bernd, is this invalid?

The original url is now wfm. Seems that the reporter followed one of the many advises and it helped. So lets close this bug as invalid. Otherwise I would be sorry that I can't close the bug as wontfix.
