Microsoft Internet Explorer needs to be supported for obtaining digital certificates.  I do not have Netscape installed on most of the computers that I use.  Nor do I want to install it just to get certificates from MIT.  The WebSIS information, which I find extremely useful, is pretty much unavailable to me because you choose not to support the most common web browser to obtain a personal digital certificate.  Furthermore, there is a taunting message saying that it is "not yet supported" for Internet Explorer.  I've been seeing that message for over a year.  If you're going to support it, please do so ASAP.  If not, remove that message, but I think that's a serious oversight and is extremely annoying, at least to me.
