  <p>I am looking for a tool that can allow me to run Internet Explorer 6, Internet Explorer 7 (and Internet Explorer 8 if possible) on my machine. I found something on the Internet like <a href="http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> and some other interesting solutions, but I need your opinion based on experience. Which is the best choice for running multiple Internet Explorer instances from the point of view of a web-developer?</p>

  <p>Edit: thank you for the help, I installed some of the tools you suggested, and I decided to stick to those two: <a href="http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/IETester/HomePage" rel="nofollow noreferrer">IETester</a> and <a href="http://finalbuilds.edskes.net/iecollection.htm" rel="nofollow noreferrer">IE Collection</a> - easy to install, intuitive UI and fast response time. </p>
  
  <p>The others:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><a href="http://www.xenocode.com/Browsers/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">xenocode</a> just crashed or I
     couldn't install it properly.</li>
  <li><a href="http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/6/8/568F0D28-0434-4794-B7FC-FB293BCC98FB/SuperPreview%5FTrial%5Fen.exe" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Multiple IE</a> wanted me to
     install Microsoft .NET which took
     eternity and at the end,
     surprise...nothing worked. Then
     again it's probably my poor
     installing skills </li>

     be the most professional approach to
     the issue but I just liked IETester
     and IE Collection better.</li>
