Yes. I pirated WinXP in order to run IE for testing purposes.

You know they give you a version of xp and vista for testing ie right? It's a virtual machine image preloaded but time limited.

Last time I checked there was no way of getting those images working outside of Virtual PC.

Are people seriously supposed to download a new image every N months and go through a conversion process each time to get it to run on VMWare.

The alternative is buying windows. If you want it for free it's not that bad to download every N months.

Well, I still would have to pirate WinXP to run VirtualPC.
