Yeah, thanks, I just tried it again. The specific problem I'm having is
that when I run it, cookies are disabled on IE6 standalone. If I click
Tools > Internet Options from IE6 alone, I get the IE7 dialog. Under
Privacy, it says "Accept All Cookies", but cookies still don't work. Dah!!
Not having cookies is the only problem I'm experiencing with Evolt's IE6
Standalone and treadsofts MultipleIEs so far. Unfortunately the pages I
need to test require cookies.
