I am trying to make an AJAX call from several domains to a single one which will handle the request. Enabling Cross domain in Firefox and Chrome was easy by setting the header on the handling server:

header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *");

But this doesn't help enabling it in Internet Explorer. When I try:

httpreq.send('');

it stops with error Access denied.

How can this be enabled in Internet Explorer?
