Internet Explorer Automation

Question

Can anyone suggest any suggestions for "something" that the end user can use to build macros that automate some forms of CRM in Internet Explorer?

• I was originally going to offer iMacro, but then I found out (i) they only have Internet Explorer and
  (ii) make things even worse, this is version 6: - (
• it should be pretty simple so i can't offer something like WATIN
• but the forms on the page are not very complicated: enter the text, select from the list, click the submit button

Cheers, SteveC.
