Different Versions of IE

Is this possible on the same pc? Right now, my home pc uses 7.0 while at work, I only have 6.0. I've been practicing with the examples both at home and at work but it would be nice if I could have different versions on the same pc so I can better understand all the work-arounds. Please let me know if this is possible and if so, where do I go to get previous browser versions. Thanks.

It's not officially supported by Microsoft. IE8 will have the IE7 compatibility mode, so you'll be able to test IE7 and IE8 compatibility in that one browser.

Personally, I use virtualization to test IE compatibility on my Macs.

That said, there is a hack out there that works well enough... http://tredosoft.com/Multiple_IE

There are different variations of this that can be found through a Google search.
