++ to the IE team! Didn't expect to see this kind of solution to the IE6 testing issue, but this is the best one they could have come up with!
Question: will this image pass WGA so that Windows Defender can be installed on it? Since it's running IE6, I think that would be helpful.
Short answer: no, it doesn't. Fails with "Stolen or lost product key".
I had a post that said more, but apparently IE6 refreshes when you change folder options (I was trying to show hidden files and show file extensions).
[edit]
Interesting use of group policy. I do think that the way it's configured is a little too limiting to test application compatibility-- it's fine for web site compatibility testing, but it removes too much to really be useful for testing desktop applications.
And I think that everyone who uses this would appreciate the extra 2 MB that Paint would add to the package. How else could I show the world the issues I'm having when developing with IE 6?
Great job, though!
