Just thought I share a small tip from the tranches, while working on Harvest a terribly useful timetracking application!
Tabs with CSS background images set appeared to flicker annoyingly whenever on mouse hoover. This affected only IE, guess this is not a surprise after all the oddities one must face with this browser. Also it only annoys users with their browser cache set to ""Every visit to page". Typically these are webdevelopers, end-users rarely have this setting on. Numerous solutions exist, an see excellent description by Ryan Carver.
Fixing this with lighttpd is quite simple, just add the following lines to your lighttpd.conf file:
expire.url = ( "/images/" => "access 1 hours",
"/javascripts/" => "access 1 hours",
"/stylesheets/" => "access 1 hours")
