You can also get Mozilla derivatives to masquerade as IE by changing
the useragent preference.  In galeon, for example, you can edit the
.galeon/mozilla/galeon/prefs.js file to include a line like this:

    user_pref("general.useragent.override",
              "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)");

Googling for "firefox useragent" turned up a number of promising approaches.
