Is there a way around needing to use Internet Explorer to have access to hotel wifi? Reason I ask is, that more and more hotels I stay with need me to open internet explorer to agree to their terms before accessing their free wifi. They don't let firefox or opera or other browsers open the terms page, which is impossible if I bring my linux pc along.

Generally, IE Tab in FireFox works for those type of things
