I don't recall offhand those back versions having a problem in that later
browser.

When I search the Fireworks technotes with "internet explorer 6.0" I did
not seem to get any relevant hits, but it's often easier to search on a
unique term in the symptom than just on the name of the browser.

I cross-checked in Google Groups, with term "group:macromedia.fireworks
'internet explorer 6', and pulled up eight threads where people had
different isolated symptoms... the browser was likely an incidental detail
here, no pattern, no outstanding symptom.

Fastest test is the one-or-all-files test... check whether a very simple
file works as you expect. Build up from there.

As long as you have the current version, then I'd recommend using that instead.

If you're seeking someone to try to reproduce a condition, then the
Fireworks newsgroup would offer the strongest concentration of folks.
