Nice. The ies4linux package also installs IE7 but they cannot make the UI go, so they install IE6, rip out the rendering engine and replace it with IE7. Quite a hackish procedure that leades to all kinds of troubles. I hope the ies4linux guys starts using the method from this article.

Hello,

Yes... I agree, but I think the ies4linux project it mostly dead. I don't want to spread a rumor but I looked at their site and the package they provide hasn't been updated in about a year now.
