In the system as you describe it, running Mono on the client won't help you.

If it's a web-based application (.Net or not) then you *should* be able 
to use any browser to access the system.  Unless of course it's in some 
way 'optimised' for IE or is using IE-specific tags etc.

What Mono can help you with is if you host the .Net service on a Unix 
box rather than on Windows.
