I just wondered why the person needs to use ie7 when it maybe worth
checking out a more compatable linux browser that will do the things
required
I think firefox may have an extension called ie view or something like
that so you can view a current page in ie
I don't know if the extension will work on the linux firefox browser
but maybe worth a go
Just a thought
