The problem is that your table cells have percentages in them:

<TD WIDTH="25%" HEIGHT="108" BGCOLOR="#000099">

Notice how the width is listed as a percentage of the total table
width, and the height is an actual number of pixels? You just need to
change all the percentages so that they're absolute numbers.

Even the latest web design software will always betray you in some
way. It's usually not worth it, because HTML is so easy to learn.
