Does anybody do that (e.g., deal with a stupid mandatory web site)?
If so, what host do you use?
pkg_add qemu and the following script to start my xp instance:
#! /bin/sh

# Add the following line for cdrom to be found
# -cdrom /dev/cd0a \
ulimit -d 1572864;
/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-i386 -m 768 \
-net nic,model=rtl8139 -net user,hostname=xp \

-monitor stdio \
-hda xp.img
Typical windows took hours to install in qemu using:
/usr/local/bin/qemu-system-i386 -m 768 \
-monitor stdio -vnc :0 \
-no-fd-bootchk \
-hda xp.img \
-cdrom /dev/cd0a -boot d
Although often just changing the user agent in my browser is sometimes
sufficient for stupid sites.
