Does anyone know of an Extension/Add-On for Firefox 4 that would (not quite sure of the correct terminology) make a website think I was using IE instead of Firefox? I don't mean that it would necessarily display the website like it would appear in IE but that the browser identifies itself as IE so that websites that only function in IE can be accessed?

This might be a silly question, but couldn't you just use IE?

It's a reasonable assumption.

We all know what assumption is...

Great post Jon! I have been following the effort since you started it, and although I have understood its purpose this post does a really great job solidifying the full rationale.
