You can spoof your user agent string to make people think you are using IE by downloading the User Agent Switcher extension.

I beg you to only switch it when you have to instead of leaving it on all the time since that makes the Mozilla userbase seem smaller.

In this case, even if people think you are using IE, it still probably won’t work. They probably use technologies like VBScript and ActiveX, which is why they would only allow IE.

I guess the best thing to do is to give them some feedback and ask that browsers other than IE be supported. I don’t think they will do that, but it’s worth a shot. :)

I think I tried that extension a long time ago, but I don’t use it anymore because I don’t really have a need for it. You may look at the forums the see what problems others are having. :)
