I know what you're probably thinking, why not just use IE on Windows? Well unfortunately I don't have accessibility to it and I'm trying to iron out some bugs IE has with CSS for my website.
Such things as transparent PNGs and positioning etc. Things are looking fine in safari, but not in windows IE, even in 6.0 which I though was supposed to fix position issues that IE had? My site's navigation seems to be too far to the right in this instance, and text even looks bigger than is should, but I think thats due to the fact the the containers are actually narrower than they should be in IE for Windows.
Anyway do any programs for mac simulate how CSS looks in IE for windows? If not, does no-one think that would be a good idea for web developers on macs? There is no way I can get my website displaying correctly until I get the chance to preview it.
At the moment I'm having to ask friends to email me screenshots, which is an annoyance and time consuming for me and them. Any help much appreciated.

Yes, but the only program that works like WinIE is WinIE. To create another program that works like WinIE would involve painstakingly reverse engineering all of its flaws, which is a pretty goofy use of time since most people who want WinIE can just use the real thing.

BrowserCam would work well for what you're doing; they have all kinds of setups which you can access via VNC. However, they're not cheap; you can get a one-day trial for $20 but they prefer if you go with ongoing subscriptions. If all you want is IE6/WinXP to test then this is definitely too expensive, but they have machines set up with almost every OS/browser combination out there.
