Yeah, a developer in our office did this a while back (not long after IE5 was released, IIRC) and decided he prefered IE4 better. I don't recall his reasons, but he kept this installation for testing purposes. The IE4 he ended up with was an odd bird. It had some visual elements from IE5, but most of the behavior was IE4. I never trusted that testing using this "upgraded to IE5, but IE4 is still there" version of IE4 was valid. Microsoft's integration of IE with the OS and their use of DLL's is just too complex to understand and trust for real testing. We always end up testing with a machine that has only the original IE4 on it.
