cufon issue with Sliding door menu - first item at different position

    I am using cufon-yui.js 1.0.9 with WordPress 2.9.1: http://www.food4thought.ie/
    The horizontal menu looks fine in IE8, FF3.6, Opera 10, Chrome 4 and
    Safari 4.

    In IE6 and IE7 (and IE8 in Compatability Mode) the first item in the
    menu is higher up than the other 4 menu items.
    I had a IE specific CSS file that only succeeded in moving the text
    down to the correct level but not the menu tab.
    #foodmenu li.page-item-19 {
    position: relative;
    top: 22px;

    }

    Anyone any ideas?
    I tried to ignore this issue but my client and a number of her customers are
    still using IE6.
    I have posted on the cufon Google group but that seems to be very low traffic.

    For the moment I have decided to disable Cufon on #foodmenu in IE6 and IE7. I know that the .browser property is deprecated but I didn't find anything useful in jQuery.support. 
    // Don't do Cufon replacement in IE6 or IE7 because the
// first item (Main Courses) is on a different level
if (jQuery.browser.msie && jQuery.browser.version.substr(0,1)<=7) {
} else {
  Cufon.replace('#foodmenu');
}
    For the IE6/IE7 specific stylesheet I make the font-style italic and the font-family cursive, in a vain attempt to make the font a little like the Cufon font. 
    /* Make #foodmenu italic because Cufon messes up first menu item. */
#foodmenu a span {
  font-style: italic;
  font-family: cursive, serif;
}
