Larry, if you only need IE for one site then you can just get an 'open IE for this page' button to easily launch it?
The link you posted displays perfectly in Opera 9 by the way, so perhaps it is a Firefox gimmick.
And of course, if you're worried about security then it's a better choice anyway:
IE - 106 security advisories, 19 remain unpatched, highest unpatched severity is "extremely critical" (5/5).
Firefox - 36 security advisories, 3 unpatched, highest unpatched severity is "less critical" (2/5).
Opera 9 - 1 security advisory, none are unpatched.
And just because Opera 9 hasn't been out that long:
Opera 8 - 15 security advisories, none unpatched.
It is a mystery why people use anything else.

Shamrock, I heard that Opera is really slow. Is this true?
