Did you actually read what I linked to? You upgrade to IE7 on you machine, and use the virtual machine (software that lets you run windows inside windows) with IE6 to test JS/CSS. BTW, new release of the virtual-machine image: http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2007/03/20/ie6-vpc-refresh-now-available.aspx @Bas: What are you talking about?

I'm using the IE6 standalone browser only for javascript testing. @Steve: I used the standalone IE6 from evolt.org. No warnings or problems at all. I have the latest IE7, no beta.. @Tommy: I don’t use IE6 to browse the web, that would be really stupid. I’m using the IE6 standalone browser only for javascript testing.

Did you run into this, or did you use the the other method? Or, thirdly, are you using some old beta IE7 version. Thanks!
