There are still a lot of web applications are still only working under IE6.? In addition to that, for web developers who are using OS X, they need to make their website compatible with IE, and especially IE6.

To solve this problem, a lot of people will choose to install xp or vista on their Mac machines with Parallel, so they can use the IE inside the MS Windows.

That is a solution, but isn’t that too much to do when you only want the IE?

Today, I am going to introduce you the new solution to install IE only to your OS X.

First of all, thank you the developer from www.kronenberg.org/ies4osx

Secondly, to install this you will need to install the X11 from your OS X installation DVD.? Finally, download the ies4osx installation file from the link above, and you will find more information on www.kronenberg.org/ies4osx/

Good luck.

Once in a while, you may have to repair your Windows due to system file corruptions. Windows repair is useful in some cases where you are stuck in a login loop or you receive some error messages at startup. Windows repair is done by booting from the Windows installation disc and choosing Repair after the installation process searches for existing OS on your hard drive.

IE Shortcut Duplicates IE Shortcut

However, after repairing Windows, you may experience difficulty starting up Internet Explorer from the shortcut icon on the desktop. When you double click on it, it will simply creates another shortcut icon instead of launching Internet Explorer. This problem is probably due to the installation of different version of IE during the repair process. Before the repair, you may have already updated your IE to version 7. When you repair Windows, it is IE 6 that overwrites it. This will give you the problem mentioned above.

To resolve this, you can manually download Internet Explorer 7 from Microsoft’s website and reinstall it. Once it’s done, you should be able to fire up Internet Explorer from you desktop again. You can download Internet Explorer from the link below:

Today, it’s not hard to see this “Google Chrome” on most IT websites. Well, if you have not yet taken a look, click this site:

Google Chrome, Google? Browser Project

My first thought was, OH NO. Does that mean as a web designer, I have to take care of one more browser since tomorrow? Right now, Microsoft’s IE has 79% of the market, FF 12%, Apple’s Safari 6% and Opera 3%. Chrome is said to be the browser that Google pushes out to fight against Microsoft’s IE. Will that happen? Who knows. There is no doubt that Google is very successful online; but, don’t forget Google has failed a lot too.

When I took a deeper look at the brief descriptions and the comic of Google Chrome. I found the interface very interesting as well as some unique features.

I will definitely try it out when Google releases this new baby for the digital world.
