Yeah, but you know there are some companies in which you are considered lucky if you get to go near a internet capable computer at all. Companies that usually let the employees do that usually have very draconian protocols regarding the installation of non approved code on their systems.
Many upper management types that aren't very computer literate will revere some of their IT department managers as gods. There are a lot of IT types out there that are by the book, humorless MSCE holified power mongers that believe that any other browswer but the one that comes with the operating system will comprimise their security, and will hunt down anyone installing "personal" software on their network.
Trust me, I've seen it happen. I myself got yelled at in my last job , for using the built in cd player to listen to music on a non-networked, stand alone system with Windows 98, because it wasn't 'authorized'. For some people IE is all they are allowed to use at work, and many system administrators will have no 'if' 'ands' or 'buts' about it.
