Running IE6 and IE7 simultaneously; possible?

Running IE6 and IE7 simultaneously; possible?
Fri, 4 Apr 2008 11:55:02 -0700
I do some web design and it would be very useful if I could have a number of 
browsers installed on my computer, to enable me to properly test the pages 
before uploading for the world to see.  I currently use IE7 and Firefox for 
this purpose, but would really like to have IE6 as well.  

Where can I download a full version of IE6?

Can I run both IE6 and IE7 on my one laptop without any problems, or will 
there be issues?

Such side-by-side installs are not supported.  You can run IE6 in one 
partition and IE7 in another, though.
