A quick browse through the Microsoft site says that the only "currently 
available" non-Windows Internet Explorer is a public beta for Solaris/SPARC. 
I'm not very up on the Linux SPARC port, so I don't know if it has some kind 
of Solaris compatibility layer. As far as running this on an x86 machine, 
forget it.

Just out of curiousity, how can they tell what products you are using?
