First off, IETester looks like an awesome program! I can see myself and my team using it extensively while developing websites.

I ran into a bug when running IETester under Parallels Desktop 3.0 build 5584 in Mac OS X v10.4.11.

The bug manifests as a crash when I create a new tab using either IE5.5 or IE6 after launching the program. The bug does not occur if my first tab is IE7 or IE8. Also, after I've created an IE7/8 tab, I can safely create IE5.5/6 tabs at will without problems.

Furthermore, if I create an IE7/8 tab, close that tab (so the tab bar is empty), and create a new IE5.5/6 tab, the error does not occur.

I've uploaded a screengrab of the error message at the following location:

I have IE7 installed under WinXP SP2 in Parallels. However, I also have Multiple IEs installed for use with IE6, so my problem may be an edge case.

I'll be happy to provide any other data that you find useful in diagnosing this issue.

For now, just creating an IE7/8 tab when first launching the program is an acceptable workaround for me.

Thanks for creating this awesome tool!

Warmly,
Warren L. Parsons
