Setup a virtual machine with Windows 7 and IE 9, the nice way.
First of all you have to download and install Virtual Box from its website: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
After that just type in your shell:
curl -s https://raw.github.com/xdissent/ievms/master/ievms.sh | IEVMS_VERSIONS="9" bash
It will take a lot, because is a 4Gb image. The good thing is that you can stop the download with Cmd + C and run the command again to continue.
When finished, launch Virtual Box and you will find an new image that you can use. The password for the admin user is "Password1".
