IE has a number of features/glitches/bugs that you will not find in any other browser. If you really need to test with IE then I don't think there is a real substitute.

You can, however, install IE on Linux. It requires wine and a little setup, but it works remarkably well, although I didn't test things like activeX.

Try the above for instructions. If you get stuck you can ask for help in the wine forum on this site.

Let us know how you get on,
