Just a quick guess, but you have the body set to 0 margins which will 
*cascade* to the table in IE, but you will probably need to set some CSS 
for the table so it will also have 0 margins and then the top row *should* 
line up better with your background.

The only way I've been able to get a table to sit at the very top is to set 
a div class -- good luck! This can get tricky in Netscape.
