 * Great plugin!
 * It would be great to have a preview window of what visitors will see when they
   visit with IE7, IE8, etc.
 * I have tried using IE9 in IE7 browser mode but cannot see the window.
 * Any thoughts on best practices for testing an implementation of Browser Blocker?
   Thank you!

 * Yes this is definately something that needs to be added.
 * I usually use a virtual machine with an older browser to test with, but there
   are some 3rd party products that can help in that department… check out [http://www.browsershots.org](http://www.browsershots.org)
   as one option.

 * Thanks bdoga! I should consider a virtual machine setup. I like browsershots 
   and also ie netrenderer [http://netrenderer.com/](http://netrenderer.com/).
 * I think after clearing my global cache I was able to get IE9 to trigger it, under
   developer tools you can switch to IE7 and IE8 mode.
 * I’m curious if there is a page url convention i.e. ([http://yoursite.com/page?blocker=yes](http://yoursite.com/page?blocker=yes))
   that we could use to do a live preview of the warning page in an up to date browser
   or at least via the admin.
