This is because the majority of institutions still use IE. Hence why internet explorer still maintains some of the market share. So, why not lock IE down and use it? Keep your FF 5 all together :) Or you could try spoofing FF 5's Software ID to IE . But, I don't know if that will solve your problem or not.Best of luck!
