Three things which should help are using CSS instead of a background image for #top_nav (minor), using valid code (major), and perhaps removing the webstats call (possible the most major problem, but it will need testing to be sure; the "documents.write"'s definitely don't help).i noticed the following post here:

thanks justin Resources css drop down menu loading delay
Posted: Thursday 16 December, 2004 By: charlie wu
hi, i've wrote a drop down menu with css, but it doesn't work with internet explore, so i added a javascript fix so it works in ie. now the problem is when the site is loading the drop down menu doesn't work till the whole site is loaded. this only happen in ie so i think it's a problem with the javascript. The problem only occurs when web page is newly loaded not in cache. does anyone else had similar problems? more importantly does anyone know how to fix it? thanx Related reading:
As far as moving the script tag into the body, it should be avoided. Just as you remove the presentational code (CSS) from the body, so should the behavioral code be removed as well.
