Hi there
Our business is in the process of offering a web-based image reviewing program for our referrers.
We plan to offer the use Parallels for Mac Users. Our problem is that the image viewing software runs on Internet Explorer 6.0 and upwards, but we have heard a rumour that Parallels and IE 6.0 or higher are not compatible. Is anyone able to confirm/deny? Any technical advice or other input anyone can give would be much appreciated. Apologies for the use of general terms; we are still in the planning stages.
Thanks very much
Jacinta
 
If you ran an older version of Win XP for example before MS IE 7 came out
MS IE 6 ran seamlessly when i started with Paraallels nearly two years ago

MS IE 6 contains securioty issues best avioded by using MS IE 7 as Microsoft recommend
any problems will be windows or security issues

Hi Hugh, thanks very much for your reply, I really appreciate it - just clarifying:
* So there are problems with Win XP versions that are older than when IE 7 was released?
IE6 worked well with Parallels two years ago, but Microsoft recommend IE7 to avoid security issues with IE6?
Thanks again
Jacinta
 
you *must* use SP 2 as well

there is a world wide pool of leaky computers spreading viruses and trojans
A'and a VM needs the same securit as any other machine running the same OS
