Can you upgrade to IE7, and keep the older IE too?

Currently I have IE 6 installed and use that for design testing purposes. I'm wondering how I can upgrade to IE7 and still keep my older IE 6 version intact. I've heard there are some new problems in IE 7 so I assume I'll want to test in that as well as older versions.

Here are some statistics on IE (so this data is only about IE users) use on my site.
95.37% use IE 6.0
2.77% use IE7.0
1.86% use IE 5.5 or lower

This data is from 8,700 visitors over the last month or so.

As you can see the IE7.0 isn't really too large, but at 250 people it represents enough monthly traffic to keep keep designs up to spec.

 

Hi Klown

I have IE7 and it does have some nice features like the tabs. I have not had any problems with it but I just recently downloaded Firefox and found it to be a lot easier for organization.

I don't know about having both versions maybe you could save IE6 on a disc. I am not sure if that would work. I have had seperate versions on my desktop of other programs before so I don't know why you couldn't do it for IE.

I hope it works out for you
