I used Firefox browser and there is a plugin for DOD sites (DOD Configuration). Works fine. I don't run windows. But there are days when I can't log into Sharepoints when everything else works just fine.
Windows (7 or lower) and IE are the default. If you try anything else your results may vary wildly and involve extensive hassles.
