How 'bout ditching the vendors who insist on their customers using IE?  (I
b*tched to our mortgage lender after an "upgrade" made their pay-online
service operable only in IE; the first response I got was "we are
considering making this available in Firefox".  I b*tched some more, and
within three weeks it was available in Firefox.  Squeaky wheel and all
that.)

Not that I should talk.  My employer has a few IE-only intranet pages.
Guess they feel safe foisting it on "captive" employees.

If the other suggestions don't solve the immediate problem, have you tried
Firefox's "View in IE" extension?  My thinking is that it might start IE in
a different mode than clicking the desktop icon will.  Probably won't help,
but when one is desperate...
