That's pretty strange! It seems to me that in IE5/Win98 the hover is
failing when the page being linked to contains a particularly long url
such as http://www.jhsnp.com/redone/store/about_mushrooms.html. Shortening
the url slightly fixes the problem. Perhaps you should use relative rather
than absolute links?
