Alternative to IETester

Question

I was wondering if anyone knew of any alternatives to IE Tester. I am getting some differences between my actual XP IE6 vm and my IETester. So I am looking for something that is a little more accurate than IETester.

Answer 1

Unfortunately the options are somewhat limited.

You can use VMWare with a Windows XP (or lower) install to test IE6

You can use VirtualPC (free) with a (free) XP/IE6 image from Microsoft

You used to be able to use Spoon.net to run just the browser via a plugin in Firefox/whatever

You can try MultipleIE's but IE6 will break and not work if IE8 is installed locally

Or if you are really lucky, you can DROP IE6 support!
