I think many web developer nowadays test its final product against
Firefox, IE6, IE7, and sometimes Safari. But that's a big problem if
we have IE7 and need to run IE6 inside of a virtual machine using
VMWare or Virtual PC... since they take up a lot of memory.

Is there a way to actually have IE 6 and IE 7 together on the same
machine? Maybe Microsoft can release an IE6 that can be installed as
a standalone app or somehow it can be hacked to do so? Thanks very
much.

Hi,

You can use IETester :

http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage

It is free, it embeds from IE5.5 to IE8beta1 without changing your
current config.
It works on XPSP2 and Vista.

Hope this helps.
