Set Zentyal as the homepage in Firefox, rename Firefox shortcut to Zentyal, tell them to run Zentyal.
I am not even going to ask how you got a user used to IE in the first place. You could switch them to chrome which looks a lot like IE these days (the other way round actually) From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Adam Nelson Sent: 03 October 2013 12:21 To: Uganda Linux User Group Subject: Re: [LUG] IE is blocked by Zentyal User Corner Jemba, I would take the stronger line - tell the user that he/she needs to have Firefox or Chrome on their machine. IT people are too wimpy in East Africa. The culture is already changing in the States where IT people are more assertive about what's right and what's wrong and that's a good thing. Don't be rude, just be firm with your professional opinion (I'm presuming you consider yourself a professional). With that said, good sites don't push people off of IE. That's basically rude and unnecessary (and often doesn't even work properly). Sites that don't work well on IE should simply not work well. -Adam -- Kili.io - OpenStack for Africa: kili.io <http://kili.io> Musings: <https://twitter.com/varud> twitter.com/varud About Adam: www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson <https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamcnelson> On Thu, Oct 3, 2013 at 12:14 PM, Kyle Spencer <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: Well, to be fair, lots of people use open source in mixed environments for a variety of reasons. We shouldn't be too hard-line :) Jemba, this is a good opportunity to encourage these users to switch to Firefox. Tell them that they must use Firefox to access the User Corner and that they simply won't be able to access it from IE. Be sure to also tell them about the other benefits of using Firefox vs. IE (e.g. security, stability, add-on's).

I presume you're talking about Linux computers, since this is a Linux user group, and asking how to promote IE usage in general (and on Windows in particular) would be not only off topic, but *anti*-topic.
