IE 6 works as good on FreeBSD as it does on Linux, see: http://wine-review.blogspot.com/2007/12/ies-4-freebsd-internet-explorer-50-55.html IEs4Linux has beta support for IE 7 see: http://wine-review.blogspot.com/2007/12/ies-4-linux-2990-better-than-ever.html They will even have a GUI in 3.x releases. Ive not tried IE7 yet, but im sure ill get around to it. Cheers, Tom
