If you already have a Windows box available on your network, remote
desktop should be the easiest to get running.  I have not tried running
IE under Wine on FreeBSD, though it seems to work OK on Linux (though
even there, I only did the installation out of curiosity; never really
used it since I have a firm no-IE policy).
