Really bizarre problem in IE

Please take a look at this page:
http://home.comcast.net/~delerious1/index5.html

It behaves as I expect in Mozilla and Opera, but there are two glaring
differences in IE (5.5):

1) The anchors go all the way across the page.

2) When you move the mouse over the lower anchors, the margins on the higher
anchors disappear!

I know that these two problems are caused by setting the height style on the
anchors. If I remove the height style, then the page in IE looks and behaves
just as it does in Mozilla and Opera. The question is: why would setting the
height style cause those two problems in IE?

In IE6, removing the spaces in between the anchors in the source solved the
second problem, even though it shouldn't have. I can't figure out why
setting the height causes the first problem, though expliciting setting the
width for the anchors works (note that setting the width to 100% makes them
wider).

This is very bizarre. Could someone else have a look at this? Maybe you can see something I'm overlooking. Go here: http://www.newsletters.forbes.com/enews/admin/deliver.php4 U: bugtest P: test Enter 1 for "How many files in this delivery?" and select a file to upload, in one of the listed formats.

this is so bizarre, and don't even know if this is right place to ask, but don't know where else: about two days I changed webhosting, changed DNS for my domain, francesdelrio.com, now when I view my site, www.francesdelrio.com from work it looks fine, just like it should (black bg, a bunch of links in green fonts sitting on a green-tone graffiti-graphic..) and all links work.. but: when I view it from home it takes me to old server!!...

Here's a Bizarre one: I have a C# service program. The service registers and runs fine on one machine but when I copy the EXE to a second machine and try to use InstallUtil to register the service on the second machine it bails out with: "No publicly exported Installers with RunInstaller attribute set to Yes" This is bizarre since the EXE does register on one machine. I checked and I am an Administrator on the target install machine...

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
