Shame...because that should be the answer. Ok then, let's break it 
down: in your markup for the sidebars (taking one from sidethumb1 for 
this), this is what you have

a class=gallery slidea href=#spanimg 
src=images/thumbs/oils/sm_garden.jpg height=100 width=100 
alt=Funnels title=Funnels /images/thumbs/sm_shed.jpg width=70 
height=70/span/a

reformatting it to make the problem more obvious
a class=gallery slidea href=#
span
img src=images/thumbs/oils/sm_garden.jpg height=100 
width=100 alt=Funnels title=Funnels /
images/thumbs/sm_shed.jpg width=70 height=70
/span
/a
snip

Patrick,
The HTML markup as I have it is essential for the hover effect to work.
   Either of these changes eliminate the characters and bring back the 
gif (*at least on my machine*):
1) Enlarging the width of #sidethumb1  #sidethumb2 from 90px to 91px.
 2) Changing  a.gallery  from display:inline to display :block.
   If the duplicate characters are still rendering on your end, I'd be 
grateful if you would let me know.

Best,
David

Sorry, but this is the point where I just shake my head and think 
whatever...

You have rubbish in your markup. I'm glad you found ways of hiding it 
via one of the above methods, but...wouldn't it be better to just remove 
the rubbish?

Your markup is broken (probably as a result of a failed find/replace?). 
It validates, of course, but just look at this extract:

a class=gallery slidea href=#spanimg 
src=images/thumbs/oils/sm_garden.jpg height=100 width=100 
alt=Funnels title=Funnels /images/thumbs/sm_shed.jpg width=70 
height=70/span/a

Fix that, and your problem may be solved...
