X-Cart forums - What code can I get rid of from head.tpl? I have unwanted space

I have modified my header the way I want it but am unsure what the code below is used for & am curious to know if I can get rid of it or if it has a place. It is leaving me a small bar across the page & preventing my side navigation from butting up to the bottom of the header like we are trying to accomplish. If I need this, what do I need of it and where else can I put it to get it out of the way. Or is there any way to hide this to get the header & side navigation to seamlessly touch?

Thanks!
Jen
