IE6 download

Forgive my ignorance, I'm completely mac-based and know bugger all about PCs, but we do have a XP-based PC at home.

I've got IE7 on it but want to download IE6 to test/fix my new site but can only find it via Service Pack 1 which I don't think I need.

Is there anywhere I can download IE6/5 on their own just for testing purposes etc?

Thanks for the link, PC's are a nightmare, although that could well be because I haven't really got a clue what I'm doing with them.

Just requested a IE6 screenshot of my site on Browsershots and it says it will take 31 minutes before I get the shot. Happy days!

Google multiple IE installer; you can run it on any PC that already runs IE7.
