I can't seem to replicate your hover problem, but to fix your cursor issue, adding something like...

a { cursor: pointer; }

...should fix that.

that fixed that problem, thanks

so can no one replicate my hover issue? It has happened to me on 3 different IE6 computers that I tried, the hover image doesn't vanish after the mouse moves away

I can't replicate that behavior on IE5-6 either.

Curious, why are you using spans for the bg-images? Instead of e.g. like:

#what{
	position: absolute;
	top: 75px;
	left: 30px;
}
#what a{
	display: block;
	width: 181px;
	height: 40px;
	background: url(what.jpg) no-repeat;
	text-indent: -9999px;
}
#what a:hover{
	background-position: 0 -40px;
}

Its an image replacement technique (possibly the best type as it works in images off, or css off, or both off situations)

I couldn't replicate it either but the usual fix when the hover state sticks is this:

#what a:hover{visibility:visible}

Hope it helps
