CSS and Kerning

Today I isolated a problem of alignment in my CSS layout.

The problem was that in a P tag, I had a long string which was italicized. This string wrapped on two lines. Once I removed the italics, the problem went away.

I brought it in Photoshop and there it was, the extra pixels created by the leaning of the letters. I had no problem with this page in Netscape 7, Firebird or Opera... just in stupid IE!

Tips, Ideas, Thoughts??

ps: just realized I had the text justified. Even when I take it out, it still does it...all these pages that say they have errors in ie? i have ie on winXP and when i go to any of those they work perfectly. i guess it has something to do with the constant updates, i get patches for ie every few weeks.I've included a snapshot of my problem. The purple box contains the italic line that is causing me a problem in IE. "es en" is part of the italic wrapping line.

Its about the only thing that remains for this site to go live :(

BTW, colors were used to identify the DIVs and do not represent the final color scheme :D
