IE6 on MAC - emulator advice

Comment:
My wife has started on online education program which we have since discovered ONLY runs on Internet Explorer 6. As this is currently only available on PC, I need to find out if there's any way I can adapt my Powerbook G4 laptop (running Panther) to accomodate IE6. (FYI - The issue is with Authorware used on their website not running on any Mac browsers correctly).
Would a PC emulator be a solution, and can anyone offer advice on what to go for and how to setup, please?
The course cost a lot, so any help would be really, really appreciatede. Thanks, Andy.

Microsoft VirtualPC 6.1 is the emulator for the Mac which can emulate basically any x86 operating system, that includes Windows, (from v1.0 to XP), DOS, Linux and others. In your case I sugggest emulating Windows 2000 and then install IE6 on there. For more information visit www.microsoft.com/mac
I don't advise this, I'd much prefer it if someone took the time to recreate the education website with standard code so that it will work on any computer.
