IE Collection has issues IIRC when you have IE8 installed it kills editable textboxes in the IE6 image…
IETester is pretty good, but doesn’t handle popup window interaction very well at all.
Spoon.net used to have awesome standalone IE versions but Microsoft shut them down
Unfortunately the best bet at the moment is to use the free Microsoft Virtual PC application and images of the Windows/IE environments you want. (they are time bombed though, so you’ll need to re-download/re-configure them about every 3months or so.
There is also Microsoft Super Preview… but this (AFAIK) only lets you see basic visual differences and doesn’t allow you to test interaction/JavaScript behavior.
