This normally only affects IE6 when using an LCD monitor.  It has to due with
the font-smoothing settings on your monitor.  LCDs use Cleartype by default
(I believe), which when using an opacity on your show effect produces that
fuzzy look.  If you turn off Cleartype on your monitor this should fix your
problem, but I doubt you'll get other people to do the same.  The best idea
would be to take any opacity setting off of your animation.  On the other
hand, if you're using a CRT and turn Cleartype on, you can reproduce the
fuzziness.

Or do like i do and tell IE6 people they're using IE6, so they deserve it :)

Hope that helps.
