Indeed.

As already stated ies4linux runs 5, 5.5 and 6.0 using wine. I also 
believe they've now got it to run IE v7. But as I'm only using it to test 
the look and feel of websites, I don't feel the need to try it just yet.

IE7 makes my blood boil anyway. A dreadful "too late" response to Firefox 
IMHO.
