If you have IE7 installed, using Multiple IE's will let you install past versions without any conflicts.
Take a look at IETester -- it allows you to test pages in IE 5.5 - 8b2.
Try ie6eolas_nt.zip from http://browsers.evolt.org/?ie/32bit/standalone . I use it on XP; haven't tried Vista.
Multiple IE does not work on Vista, you are stuck using a VM of sorts for full IE support. This is critical if you need to test your javascript or debug through CSS.
I managed to use AndLinux + Wine to get this working, but honestly I think the VMWare/Virtual PC/Virtual Box route is simpler.
I've used the multiple IE, but it has javascript problems which aren't their in the normal version.
The IE team advices to use the Internet Explorer Application Compatibility VPC Images. These are virtual pc images with different IE versions.
Supported versions:
For other IE versions you could make your own virtual image.
Just use http://www.xenocode.com/browsers/
You can run older version of IE in Vista and Windows 7 :)
