The only way is to put all the text links (normal and mouseover) in layers
and then make them visible/invisible onMouseOver and Out. Too much hassle,
I'd say.
My opinion: A year and a half ago we added image mouseovers to our sites
knowing that IE3 couldn't handle them. To me this is the same: put a simple
a:hover in, knowing that NN4 can't handle them. Too Bad.
