Have you tried setting firefox to identify as IE?  I've seen examples of 
sites that didn't work unless the browser identified as a browser that was 
known to the site.  Firefox might render the pages just fine.

You can do it the hard way...

Go to about:config and change:

    general.useragent.vendor
    general.useragent.vendorSub


Or the easy way....

That adds a "User Agent Switcher" option to your Tools menu.

It's good to identify as Firefox unless the site you are browsing requires 
that you identify as IE:
