the Texas Health and Human Services website requires Internet explorer 6x or greater in applying for jobs online. So I have to log out of Firefox and go through IE instead, which is terrible because it will only allow one application at a time, whereas Firefox would allow you to apply for multiple positions by saving you info. And the pop-up box to fill out your employment history in IE is super tiny! ugh! I want to go through firefox and not internet explorer.

Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.

  • Shockwave Flash 10.0 r22
  • Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_17 for Mozilla browsers

Update the Java plugin to the latest version.

Update the Flash plugin to the latest version.

If that website only works with IE and not with other browsers like Firefox then your only choice is to use IE directly or via indirectly an extension like IE Tab or IE View.
If IE specific code is used then spoofing the User Agent won't work.
