David / Russ,
Thank you for the responses. The first thing I did was remove the br tags, 
and the image movement stopped. Then I turned my side nav bar into an 
unordered list. (That came out really nice, thanks for the recommendation.) 
However then the image movement came back in IE7.  Thankfully Russ I saw 
your post, removed the float on my side advertisement image (and changed the 
class name to .imgSideAd) and that stopped the movement in IE7.

Now I'll determine if I should make those changes for IE6 users. I'm 
wondering if anyone really even uses IE6 anymore.

Sincerely,
Brian
