Actually, I only just noticed this bit of your original post:

I thought that you didn't actually have a Windows machine at all,
otherwise my answer would have been slightly different.

You can simply download Internet Explorer as a standalone version from
this site: http://browsers.evolt.org/?ie/32bit/standalone and then you
can run as many different versions as exist from one machine. Just
install IE7 as the actual browser, then unzip the IE6 you downloaded
from the above site and you can run it by running iexplore.exe from
within the unzipped archive.
