Why?
Why would someone install virtualbox or wine to run internet explorer?

No kink-shaming, some people are into unusual stuff. :P

At least there are no Fortune 500 companies using IE8 or IE8 conpatibility mode anymore, right? RIGHT...?

Where I work, some sites require IE or Edge.

I did for a time. I'm a Linux-only user, and I wanted to apply for a job at a major university where I live.

The only browser the site worked on was IE. So I installed IE under PlayOnLinux/WINE.

After I applied, I found the site worked on Midori, so I downloaded that and scrapped IE.

Working on Linux and needing to check compatibility on IE and Edge is a huge pain in the ass.

Because Indian govt sites don't work on chrome and you need them to fucking file taxes.

🤯🤯🤯

Fully pledged linux user here. I always install IE7 to my wine prefixes, to check some compatibilities for my small website.

Also, some applications ( mostly pre 2010 ) require IE to get data from internet, so its almost a must, unfortunately :(

@rohbaert Thats what I use browserstack for.

Silver light?
