Running internet explorer on linux

[Hagrid]

I have tried the programs that comp with some linux distro's that emulate IE(i need IE 5.5 or better) for a website. I heard there is a way to run it on linux or is there a good browser that emulates it better/closer?
I am trying this on SUSE 10.2. Thanks!

I believe you can set firefox to be identified as IE by changing a setting in about:config.

Or you can install a working version of IE 6 with Wine using IE4Linux.

Thanks! That is awesome. It worked.
It just sucks that the site I need it to work on didnt work. I am going to email them and see if they can make their POS site work for some linux browsers too. Dam windows crap....
Thanks for the help though!

You might also need the Firefox ActiveX plugin...but be warned, this opens up the save security vulnerabilities that exist within Internet Explorer.
