How to Use Greasemonkey Scripts in Internet Explorer

Trixie is an add-on for Microsoft Internet Explorer that lets you run (some) Greasemonkey scripts with IE. The official site says:

Trixie is to Internet Explorer as Greasemonkey is to Firefox. It lets you remix the Web via scripts. You may do this to either make it more readable, fix bugs or to even add little features to make the site more usable to you. Trixie by itself does none of this. It is just a plugin for Internet Explorer that enables executing chunks of JavaScript code and thus lets you use the Web the way you want to use it.

Getting Greasemonkey scripts to work in IE with Trixie is a matter of trial and error according to “Install Greasemonkey Scripts In Internet Explorer” by tech blog gHacks. Trixie is a few years out of date, and has some restrictions on what scripts may and may not execute.
