Internet Explorer 7 Google Map Rendering Problem

Hi I'm having some trouble with IE7 when doing a map. I've made an xml and ajaxed it to grab points based on where the user is on the map. It works well, and in FF, IE8 no problems when they click the points. On IE7 it firstly misses the cross at the top right, has some problems with the border (fixed that with some margin) and more importantly cuts out an portion of the image which I can't figure out.

I've attatched an image and what you see there is basically an a tag with a background image. I've taken the title out as I thought that might cause it. Basically I'm stumpped any ideas. Thanks Richard

There seems to be a bug in Internet Explorer which has to do with how transparent PNGs are scaled when using the Zooming feature of the browser. It's difficult to reproduce because it's a local browser setting.

It happens even in maps.google.com. See the example below at 125% zoom, using Internet Explorer 8:

Is your zoom set to anything other than 100%?
