Could you provide a link please?
If you have Firefox you might want to install the web developer toolbar. That will allow you to turn on borders on tables and/or images which will at least show you where the gaps are exactly. This is probably an issue with borders or margins - you just have to figure out which element is the problem.
Welcome to the Forums, BTW! This place seems to be crawling with English people lately for some reason
Not that that's a bad thing!!

My guess is you're using IE and the problem is only in IE (sometimes Opera as well), and done with tables *although have been known to be wrong
*
The problem can usually be found within one of three things,
the old IE bug - images need to be on the same line as tags (you can not have a space after if there is an image, text is ok)
You have a mixture of percentage and fixed cells ('s) which do not match, ie: makes .5 - 50% of 21 is ...
The wrong use of valign and/or align: valign=right, align=top ... are wrong, also the lack of using the alignment can cause it also if the content is to long, using align=right can usually fix the problem (this works opposite to how it looks, as the gap is to the left).
Try the top table (the banner, navigation one), add align="right" (if you haven't already) to the last tags of every group. try the second table 1 pixel smaller in size if your cell padding and spacing is at 0, else decrease either by 1. The third one put the table tag staright after the previous tables end tag and put align right in the last td of every tr. - you never know it just might do the trick.
It can be a tricky lil so and so to fix/find sometimes

A lot of times, it could be spaces in your codeing. So, if you have something similar to the following:
<tr><td>
<img src="image.gif" width="100" height="100" alt="" title="" />
</td>
</tr>
Just change it to this, and see if it helps:
<tr><td><img src="image.gif" width="100" height="100" alt="" title="" /></td>
</tr>
