IE Link Issue

[Atlantis]

I'm having an issue on the Explorer display of my main site nav bar.

View here http://departedangels.org

Before you knock me, yes it's built with tables. I'm still working on converting to divs and I know the reasoning behind them so holding off on the lectures would be great :D

In IE, the links look as though they are embossed or hovering a bit. Try viewing it in FF and it will look correct. Here's the CSS. It's the .navbutton group. Any help would be great!
