As I said, it was in 1.0, I have written that I'm not sure about the current 
license.

Well, I checked. You're right.

Microsoft cannot tie Internet Explorer to run only under native Windows, or 
else they'll be quicker then you think in the Antitrust case all over. I have 
checked that with CodeWeaver's CEO.

So far, I have tested version 5.0, 5.5 and 6.0SP1. All seems to work 
perfectly ok. I also suggested michael to take 30 minutes and try working 
with Crossover before spending money on a VMWare license.

Thanks,
