Frequenlty in IE6 a rule of the type:
  a:hover some_child_of_a { any_property.... }
is ignored unless you also have a rule changing some property of the anchor
itself:
  a:hover { only_some_properties_are_useful_here.... }
A good solution in your case is to add:
  #nav a:hover { border-width: 0; }
which doesn't change anything visually, but "wakes up" IE...

Read a more detailed explanation here [1].

HTH,
