Is there anyway of installing IE6 (or preferably an alternative) on Vista?

Hi guys,

I've got a website that I need to test in IE6 but can't from this PC because it doesn't have it installed, and I've absolutely no idea how to install IE6 on Vista.

Also, if possible is there a program I can install or run that'll basically mimic IE6 to save me doing a full install? That'd be ideal since I'd only very rarely use the program.

Thanks

Didn't try it but found this via Google - MultipleIE

Likewise unfortunately, I was dead chuffed when I downloaded that, completely standalone and no installation required, alas it wouldn't actually run

Hm, I was going to recommend Multiple IE as well, but as you said, it's not working for Vista yet. Any family or friends with XP?
