I note that the top browser is Maxthon - which has already been my choice. It functions as a front end to IE so provides new features for the user while maintaining complete IE compatibility for sites which require it - such as many of our MLS sites around the country.
The gateway article which will provide access to the listings can be found here: http://www.webware.com/8300-1_109-2-0.html?keyword=Webware+100+2008
