Try giving this a shot.

Code:

<body bgcolor="#808080" bottommargin="0" rightmargin="0" topmargin="0" leftmargin="0">

Remove bold code above.

Add code below within your <head></head> section.

Code:

<style>
body
{
 background-color:#808080;
 text-align: center; /* center fix for IE */
}
</style>

I use this on my site then wrap everything in a div to counter for the text-align: center. Just keep that in mind because if you put any more text on your site it will want to center itself. So you will need to text-align: left; to correct it. If you have any problems with that in the future just let us know. Also tried other methods to center it and had no luck. Seems the text-align: center; was the only thing that worked.

Hope that helps!
