In all honesty, i don't think they would fix it.  I should complain! I
honestly hate using IE. They are definitly microsoft dominate. I want
them to redesign it for easier use, because i have a hard time finding
links i'm supposed to find easily.  At least my course material is
upfront! 

I hadn't really thought about using IE through wine, and don't really
want to.  I have a linux box i use for gaming mostly, but I'll have to
work with microsoft crap throughout the rest of my course materials,
so.. i guess i'm stuck for now. I will definitly work around it later
tho ;)  especially in the programming courses. gcc is gonna be used ;)
muhahaha! and i am so NOT taking visual basic.
