destro75: About the "shooting in the foot matter" ... IE has plugins already out there. Some are commercial and some are free. I use Morgan's plugins in IE too, although that's not my browser of choice ... works just the same as in FireFox and is free too.

Morgan Multimedia has plugins at:
http://www.morgan-multimedia.com/
they have a free IE variant as well:
http://www.morgan-multimedia.com/JPEG2000/

Morgan has nices example pages as well with jpeg2000 coded images which you'll see after the plugin is installed.

Some more IE plugins that I know of (but haven't tested myself):
http://www.elysium.ltd.uk/JPEG2000.html
http://www.lizardtech.com/download/dl_download.php?detail=geo_expressview_plugin&platform=win
http://www.jp2tools.de/English/

I do realise that many are not happy installing anything in their browsers ... there are still lots of folks out there who never will install Flash either. I can't help there.
