You can force Safari to pretend it is IE. You can also do that in
FireFox and OmniWeb. It allows you to get through most of these
ridiculous messages.

It's always the server's fault by the way: Most of the time it's either
because the webmaster has validated IE and refuses to spend an extra
minute considering other browsers exist, or because the site uses
ActiveX (a Microsoft-only technology),
In both cases, it's because they are not using standards when they code
their pages.
