I’m having an issue that seems to be nothing new.
Dropdowns become stuck on rollover in IE 6/7, and do not disappear unless the browser is refreshed.

They seem to stick in Opera and FF as well here.
Since CSS won’t ‘stick’ like that in opera, I’d say that’s a scripted menu? If so then I’d say faulty script, ask over in the javascript section.
Though that’s a bit of a case of “using javascript to do CSS’ job”
I’ve seen this issue discussed around here before. Here’s one link I found. See if this helpeth:

Hi,
You have corrupted the JS in that you are applying the sfhover class to make the hover but not removing the same class.
<script type="text/javascript"><!--//--><![CDATA[//><!--
sfHover = function() {
if (!document.getElementsByTagName) return false;
var sfEls = document.getElementById("nav").getElementsByTagName("li");
for (var i=0; i<sfEls.length; i++) {
sfEls[i].onmouseover=function() {
this.className+=" sfhover";
}
sfEls[i].onmouseout=function() {
this.className=this.className.replace(new RegExp[B](" sfhoverb[/B]"), "");
}
}
}
if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload", sfHover);
//--><!]]></script>
You add sfhover but you remove “sfhoverb” whch doesn’t exist so the menu stays highlighted.
It shuld have been " sfhover\\b"
IE7 doesn’t need that routine anyway so give it to IE6 only like this:
[B]<!--[if lt IE 7]>
<script type="text/javascript">
sfHover = function() {
var sfEls = document.getElementById("nav").getElementsByTagName("LI");
for (var i=0; i<sfEls.length; i++) {
sfEls[i].onmouseover=function() {
this.className+=" sfhover";
}
sfEls[i].onmouseout=function() {
this.className=this.className.replace(new RegExp(" sfhover\\\\b"), "");
}
}
}
if (window.attachEvent) window.attachEvent("onload", sfHover);
</script>

Make the script external because the cdata comments will mess up the conditional comments (i.e. call the script from withn the CCs).
