The hack that is used to make png images transparent under IE is an ActiveX
filter. As I understand it ActiveX filters in IE are always drawn on the
top layer and IE does not pass mouse events through to anything under them.
For this reason you cannot have links or other events that rely on the mouse
in an area that has hacked png transparency.

In case somebody is interested, i solved the problem with the technique
explained in http://webfx.eae.net/dhtml/pngbehavior/pngbehavior.html
Applying those rules it's finally possible to have both transparent pngs
and rollover

If you want to use the Alpha Image Loader.

That's possibly the nastiest piece of M$oft kludge-workaround I've ever
seen.
