There are two nested boxes following the header with the menu in question, #main and #twocolumn. both have overflow:hidden set, probably to contain floats, the "easy way" (the buggy way, I should add). But Firefox seems to loose track on the menu once the mouse hovers a position above the overflow area. Your script just slows down the effect. Open your page with Firebug and highlight #twocolumn, then let the mouse gently move towards the borderline. In Firebug, remove overflow:hidden from both and use display:table instead, for debugging. You will have to choose another containing floats method. I'd suggest starting with a solid clearer, or using the easyclearing method.
