The one you see before hovering/mousing over the menu, and the one you 
see while hovering/mousing over it.

'stick' :-)

Ah see, you didn't explain that in your first post, and you didn't 
give a link either, so I just assumed you were talking about rollover 
images, which do indeed tend to flicker on mouseover in IE6.

Nothing really - forget it. I have no idea what your menu is doing. I 
thought you were using images. Maybe because I saw the word 
"BackgroundImageCache" in your JavaScript snippet? 
 
If you can give a URL, someone else might see/know what is happening 
and give you a solution.
