IE6 and before doesn't support :hover in CSS (except for anchors). You can use this script to make hovers work in IE. Just add the following line to your stylesheet (this assumes the path of the file -- you may need to change it to reflect your paths).
body { behavior:url("csshover.htc"); }
body { behavior:url("csshover.htc"); }
