Help with Drop Down Menu (multi level) PLEASE!!!

Hi guys,
Urgengly need your help! I recently added the " PVII Menu CSS Express Drop-Down Menu" by Project Seven Development to a website. It works perfectly in almost all browsers, however, the orignal menu had one single dropdown level, however i needed to add an extra level, so now it is multi-level(x3).
It works lovely, however the client is using IE6 and noticed that the dropdowns are not functioning correctly. The 2nd level rollovers don't work, but the 3rd level ones do etc. Of course they refuse to upgrade so im stuck with the problem!
I've been tearing my hear out trying to find a fix but can't. I was wondering if anyone could take a quick look and let me know if they can help... PLEASE....

No offense, but have you tried asking in the PVII forums ?
If the hover pseudo-class is on anything except an <a> tag, IE6 will NOT work w/o some javascript. You'll need conditional comments, a separate css file, and the whatever:hover (google it) to make IE6 work right.
