IE 6.0 for Mac

The one option you can use is to download and test CrossOver for Mac, which will allow you run some Windows apps on OSX without windows installed.  IE works, but not sure if it will work for YOUR specific need.  But you should be able to download the trial and give it a shot.

You will never see IE 6 on the Mac. IE is no longer developed for the Mac.
If the site/app you're using requires IE 6, you have to get a PC or run
Windows on your Mac. There's nothing close because certain websites use
technologies (such as ActiveX) that are only available for Windows.
