[thelist] IE5 and IE4

Sorry....

The last email was a mistake, I was remotely connecting, thinking of another
app...... I meant to say....

VMWARE is the application for loading several operating systems on one
box...

The problem lies with IE not letting multiple versions of browsers being
installed at the same time...

Linux, SUN, Atari 800???  Load em all on one box (not the atari, just
kiddin')

Also with 95, 98, ME, NT3.5, WIN 3.1, 2000, linux, mac.... Many tests for a
web site...

www.vmware.com

you can load this on an NT machine, build a version of any OS and then load
the appropiate version of IE...

A common problem with web testing...

I use a product that is called VMWARE

I have 48 combination of operating systems on 1 machine, that I use for
testing websites.

good luck

Hi,
   Simple question ! I have IE5 installed (WinNT4; SP5) and just realised
that we need to check a site using IE4 (and wonders - there are no machines
spare). Further, was told that IE5 does not really do a complete re-install
and leaves a few DLL's behind ( true / false / no idea ?). This was not IE5
installed over IE4, it was a new machine which has NT, then IE5 installed.
Can i just uninstall IE5 and then install IE4 (I desparately want to avoid a
format and re-install of NT) and hope that it will be like an original
version of IE4, or I am just hoping against hope. Would be very grateful for
somebody helping.
TIA,
Regards,
Ashish
