Cufon font delay problems...

I'm using cufon font replacement for headings and it's well known that in IE there's a delay before it replaces the original font with the custom font.

But on several sites they recommend the following code to prevent the delay:

<script type="text/javascript"> Cufon.now(); </script>

Most say to insert it before the closing /body tag. In this position the code conflicts with my dropdown navigation.

In other locations like in the head section it cures the delay but I also get the "Done, but with errors on page" message in IE (no problem in Firefox).

In another cufon thread someone recommended using Google Web Fonts. I'll look into this but in the meantime does anyone know what's causing the IE problem?

Thanks for any advice!
