You might want to check out VirtualBox [1] and setup a Windows
instance to replicate the full IE & JavaScript environment.

In case you have no immediate access to a Windows XP/Vista/7
(trial/evaluation) license you also might want to consider creating an
Amazon EC2 account and use one of their default Windows Server
instances. [2]
It takes only a few minutes to set up and it would cost you less than
100 yen in case you need it for no more than a few hours of testing.

Cheers,

Peter
