Step-by-step guide: Running IE on a virtual machine
0 Comments Published June 9th, 2006 in All Categories, Internet Explorer
Over the last several years, it has been open season against Internet Explorer (IE). The Web is 
littered with malicious Web pages. These pages can install browser hijackers, keystroke loggers, viruses, adware, or just about anything else that you can think of on IE.
One possible solution to the problem is to run Internet Explorer inside of a virtual machine. Running IE within a virtual machine won’t stop Internet Explorer from becoming infected, but it will isolate an infection so that it cannot impact your workstation.
Another advantage to using a virtual machine is that you can make a copy of the virtual operating system before you ever go onto the Internet for the first time. That way, if Internet Explorer were to become infected, you don’t have to spend hours trying to get rid of the infection. You can just restore the machine to a pristine state.
