Hi Davide,

All the problems I saw seem to come from the resolution I was using: 
1024 x 768 on a 19" SyncMaster 930MP.

At 1280 x 1024 and  800 x 600 everything looks fine.  Also 1152 X 864 
looked OK but as I was just clicking on links in the email message, I 
ran out of guest users and didn't check all problems at that resolution.

Maybe IE7 will surprise you in a good way.  Hope springs eternal.
