Since microsoft seems to insist on keeping their browsers perpetually
vulnerable for the government to exploit, seems sandboxing is about the
only way to keep it from infecting your os. A full vm just to keep ie
from infecting you though?
Why not just NOT use IE? It's really not common anymore I hit those
stupid IE-only things, maybe once a year.
Side note, was looking at docker for the same thing under linux, seems
people are doing this, sandboxing even desktop functions into a
container, which I'm liking the notion of!

Microsoft provides versions of IE ready to go for VirtualBox. You
select which version of IE you want and the version of Windows to
emulate and they give you a zip file.
1) Download the zip
2) Extract the zip
3) Open VirtualBox and Import Appliance
The images expire after 90 days. When that is up you delete the
virtual machine and import another one. So don't delete your .zip file.
