Looks like a simple coding error but I don't know how to fix it. E.g.
here is the source for one of them (as seen by IE8's Developer Tools, Edit
source command:

<A class=extra href="#">SEO<IMG style="WIDTH: 9px; HEIGHT: 11px"
class=rightarrowpointer src="images/.gif"></A>

E.g. wouldn't that be at least an HTTP 404 for the typo in that src=
attribute? FWIW Image Report seems to support this idea.

What's strange is that the class=extra does seem to provide a background
image if that is what that code is supposed to represent:

..ddsubmenustyle .extra
background : url(images/extra.gif) #2d2b1c no-repeat 152px center

but when I try to delete the extraneous src= attribute in the HTML I still
get the effect of the HTTP 404 *and* the dropdown menu stops working. So
you need to find someone with a better grasp of how CSS works unless this is
enough of a clue for you to fix it yourself.
