It's actually a Javascripted highlight - it shows up as a very very dark
blue 'S' to start with, then when you move the mouse over it it highlights
as the electric blue 'S'. This works in Netscape 4.06, which is what I'm
using.

Hmmm... that sounds cool. Too bad it didn't work for me. (I'm using
Netscape 4.5).
