Ok I have already tried google and came across a bunch of articles that did not help. Heres the problem : IE6 does not support alpha transparency in IE6 and I need to desperately fix it. Is there a hack that would let me solve the problem.
An example of my problem can be seen here
Also, please no links to articles since I have read about 23 articles on this issue so far.

@phoenyx: i already read that article. As i said, I already googled it and tried all the techniques so far.
We use the htc file trick for fluther for images, and the alphaloader CSS trick for transparent divs. You can always take a look at the site in IE6 and go from there.
If your image is a background image, you can use CSS along these lines to do this.
Main stylesheet
div#mydiv {
background-image: url(/images/mytransparent.png);
}
IE stylesheet
div#mydiv {
background-image: none;
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(enabled=true,src=’/images/mytransparent.png’,sizingMethod=‘scale’);
}
Dave Edmunds has a javascript library called IE7 that does this automatically. See here.
