This is a really old problem. It is, as has been mentioned before, due
to white space in your HTML. It is almost always due to a newline just
after the <img> tag and before the </a> tag. If you like to make your
HTML look neat and tidy then you will almost certainly see this little
bugger show up. The trick is to place everything from the anchor start
tag (<a href=...>) to the anchor end tag (</a>) on a single line with
absolutely no spaces around the <img> tag that is between them.
