View Full Version : [SOLVED] Installing Internet Explorer into Ubuntu 10.04 (I have a good reason, please read)

I have a video server at my company that streams my security cameras to my home (or anywhere really). The problem is, it will only work in Internet Explorer. I use 100% Linux at home, so I can not see my cameras unless I boot into *******. So, unless someone has a better idea, I really need IE installed into Ubuntu for the sole purpose of monitoring those cameras.
- Puzzled!
PS: I have tried Firefox, Chromium, etc etc and I just get a response from my video server saying I MUST use IE v5 or higher.

I used it to watch activex-based cameras.

Well, lots of cool ways. Thanks everyone. I installed the Virtualbox then W7 into it. Kinda neat running W7 within a virtual machine in Linux! Just proves Linux the progressing forward and taking hold of the future!
