Check out this plugin:
http://cherne.net/brian/resources/jquery.hoverIntent.html
It may help you.
Instead of mouseenter and leave do
$('object').hoverIntent(function(){
$("ul.LvlTwo").slideToggle('medium');
},function(){
setTimeout(function () {
$("ul.LvlTwo").slideToggle('
>
> medium');
> }, 2000);
});
