If IE is your only option, then when you Go To Play, that Main Menu comes up in a second window. You can grab the top margin of the MM window, and pull it down enuff to see the back window. Then, you can click on the red X of the back window, and have only the one MM screen open. This is the way I did it, until... I discovered Google Chrome.
http://www.google.com/chrome < I know this link doesn't work, but you can still copy it, and paste it in your address field. For some reason, the [Insert a link] option up there is greyed out.
