Just reminding that it's not necessarily a good idea: e.g. if you have
installed IE7, then your IE6 may or may not work as normal IE6 install.
So you test, but have no guarantees that your tests give meaningful
results... Read for instance this:

The best way to test with multiple IE versions is to use some virtual
machine software, like VMWare, Parallels, or the free of charge option
MS's own VPC. Of course you can run other OSes like Linux in a virtual
machine too.
