Another problem I've been running into is the fadeIn() effect in IE
6 (of course). When I try to fade in text, in IE 6 the text is
fuzzy, as if it's out of focus. Normally it suddenly rights itself
when the fade effect is complete, but if the text is bold then it
remains out of focus permanently. It happens even when I have no
styling classes applied at all. Has anyone else run into this
before? Has anyone found a solution?

This is a known bug in IE6. A workaround is to give the fading
element an explicit background colour. There is a similar problem
(ironically caused by efforts to fix the aforementioned IE6 bug) in
IE7 which does not seem to have a workaround (yet?) whereby ClearType
does not work on text that has been faded.
You can find further details in earlier threads (from last year mostly).
