This is a css issue.
IE 6 has some trouble with hover.
If someone with IE 6 could test the following css adjustments.
.slideshow-thumbnails a:link {
    display: block;
    padding: 5px;
    position: relative; 
}
.slideshow-thumbnails a:visited:hover, .slideshow-thumbnails a:link:hover {
    background-color: #86d0ff !important;
    opacity: 1 !important;
}

The hover stuff isn't done in Javascript, it's just CSS and IE doesn't support 
the "opacity" rule (maybe IE9?). You can probably get it to work writing 
specific rules to target the IE browsers:
