It is not a hover problem; in IE, the underline is always propagated to the 
generated content - even when the generated element is set to e.g. 
display:inline-block. Older Gecko (at least Firefox 3.6) also did that.

That is contrary to what the spec says:
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/text.html#propdef-text-decoration

Unfortunately, I didn't find a workaround for IE (for older Gecko, you specify 
a background-color on the generated content and it would cover the underline, 
but that doesn't work in IE.
