What actually goes wrong in Hotmail mate. It's hard to give advice when we don't know the actual problem.

If its a corporate email thats going out then it's not Hotmail in IE7 thats your worry, it's how the thing looks in Outlook 2007 which is REALLY bad for fecking up emails and stylings.
Hotmail will rip out background images, youve got some background colours in your html, is it ripping out the background colours?

I've had problems with colspan in the past, bash it together again and see what happens.

You know what. I'm not the brightest this morning. I just fixed a colspan mistake and everything worked out fine. UGH. Sorry for the waste of time guys.

I copied the body from the browser, pasted it into gmail and send it to hotmail.

Yeah it just clicked that I added the the colspan when I didn't need to. I nested the inner table instead or working it into the overall table structure which removed the need for couple of columns (kinda hacky but tables are not my friend and it seemed to work). I just forgot to reduce the colspan afterwards.
