What error is your code giving you? What does the rest of you XML
loader code look like?

MIE -> Runtime error
Mozilla ->uncaught exception: Permission denied to call method
XMLDocument.load.
(Note: MIE works fine if i run the file on my computer)

This is the code to load the document:

function importXML()
{
if (document.implementation && document.implementation.createDocument)
{
xmlDoc = document.implementation.createDocument("", "", null);
xmlDoc.onload = createTable;
}
else if (window.ActiveXObject)
{
xmlDoc = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM");
xmlDoc.onreadystatechange = function () {
if (xmlDoc.readyState == 4) createTable()
};
}
else
{
alert('Your browser can\'t handle this script');
return;
}
xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.load("http://www.otherwebsite.nl/test.xml");
}

Is that client side code? If yes then with the normal IE security
settings you can only load from the same host your HTML page with the
script is loaded from. There is an IE security setting to allow access
to data sources from different domains but don't expect anyone to lower
his IE security settings. If it is only for yourself play with the
setting, it should work then.
The best solution however is to use server side code to do such stuff.
