Firefox has an extension called IEView which allows a user to easily browse any website in IE when it is called for.

Opera also has a few different ways a user can easily access IE for the currently open webpage, as well.

I don’t think this will hurt or help Firefox or IE. I think the people it’s geared toward don’t really care about what’s powering their browser as long as it works.
