From IE 5.x versions I know a free tool called "IE5 web accessories" which let me e.g. open frames in new windows.
Is there a Web Accessories version for IE 6.0 too?

I noticed some incompatibilities applying IE5webacc to IE6

What incompatibilities?

IE5 Web Accessories:

For IE6, a minor problem is in Images List you need to press F5 to
refresh the blank list.

This problem has always been there:
From a previous post by Ronnie Vernon MVP:

There is a bug in the web accessories.

To fix it, use Notepad to open ZOOMIN.HTM (found usually in
WINDOWS\WEB ),
and edit it to read both image dimensions before setting any of them:

old contents:
....
h = parentwin.event.srcElement.height * 2;
parentwin.event.srcElement.height = h;
w = parentwin.event.srcElement.width * 2;
parentwin.event.srcElement.width = w;
....

new contents (the 3rd line in the fragment above moved up):
....
h = parentwin.event.srcElement.height * 2;
w = parentwin.event.srcElement.width * 2;
parentwin.event.srcElement.height = h;
parentwin.event.srcElement.width = w;
....

Do the same for ZOOMOUT.HTM.

They work fine for me on IE6.

The worst one is GrabURL.htm (also the most useful IMO).
Jim Byrd has a post which lists all the necessary mods including
that one. I haven't seen it in a long time though so you probably
would need to resort to a Google Groups search to find it.
