    sfhover is a replacement for the hover psuedo-class, used for showing a "Suckerfish" dropdown menu in IE6.
    You need it because IE6 only supports the hover class for anchors, not list items.

    I think that is how it works, check this out for more info:

    To be clear: there is no such thing as 'sfhover' in CSS. Apparently, this is a javscript function to fix IE so it will work with standard markup.

    it is a class name, used in a javascript custom function for normal hover effect replacement.

    hover effect is style that applied when user's mouse cursor hover on an html element.

    it is actually a java script function not a CSS property.
    and it is used to apply hover effect on drop down menu in IE6.:)
