Hi All,

I have tried searching this topic here, at Mactopia and a few other places but have had no luck, perhaps there is a previous thread I have missed and if so, I would appreciate a link in the right direction.

Else...

I am running a SR MBP with Fusion on board and want to find a suitable way to test web sites on the various versions of IE for starters. I have tried a couple of so-called "free" multi-platform/browser testing web sites but they choked on the code I was feeding them.

I am hoping to be able to download and instal the MS Internet Explorer Application Compatibility Images in Fusion Virtual Machines.

The files are huge and total over 3 GBs so I want to hear about your joy or pain before I embark on such a perilous escapade.

This is my first Thread so I hope I have been able to adhere to the accepted protocols. Cheers and thanks in advance.

No one downloads such a thing just for I.e.

Search "Internet Explorer" in the forums and you'll find dozens of threads mentioning better options.
