I don't see this problem at all
I designed this page for Firefox but I checked it in Internet Explorer 6 on XP and it looks the same. Then at work I checked using IE6 on 2000 and it looks the same. My wife looks at it from her work, also using IE, and says that all the text in the news box is void of any padding so that the text is flush against the sides. Why is she seeing things that way while I am not, even using the same browser?

I'm seeing the exact same thing as your wife in three browsers - Opera 7 - Opera 6.5 and IE 6. Windows XP SP2 - 800X600 screen resolution - 17 inch monitor

Geez...I should have gathered all my thoughts first..
The code isn't validatiing, so maybe if you fix the errors?

I see the same as roo plus in FF the news box overflows the content, I think you need a clear:both; in there. But like roo said, it doesn't validate, so you may have many problems.

I just don't understand why it is any different. Same OS, same browser.
Aside from why I don't see what other see and vise versa, I 'm unfamiliar with the css command clear:both

im really just guessing because i did not inspect you code, but in FF when using "float:left;" the element floating will vertically extend past the elemt it floats next to unless you use another element to "clear" the floats.
but now i see you are using tables so try this in your style sheet
#box_bottom
{
padding:12px;
}
in addition to the attributes you may already have for that ID
