To quote from clause 5.11.3 of the CSS2 specification regarding the order:
(start quote)
A:link    { color: red }    /* unvisited links */
A:visited { color: blue }   /* visited links   */
A:hover   { color: yellow } /* user hovers     */
A:active  { color: lime }   /* active links    */

Note that the A:hover must be placed after the A:link and A:visited rules, 
since otherwise the cascading rules will hide the 'color' property of the 
A:hover rule. Similarly, because A:active is placed after A:hover, the active 
color (lime) will apply when the user both activates and hovers over the A 
element. 
(end quote)

And just to reiterate what I and others said before, NN does NOT currently 
support the hover pseudo-class. Perhaps in version 5 or 6 or whatever they 
are going to call it!
