Connect Windows Mobile 6 emulator to internet on Windows 7

Question

I have a slight problem... I need to connect the Windows Phone 6 emulator to internet. That requires Virtual PC 2007. However, VPC 2007 is not supported for Windows 7. When I try to run the setup program Windows tells me the program is blocked due to compatibility issues. Running the setup file in Compatibility Mode didn't help either.

What to do ? o_O

I've used the method described on this blog dozens of times. It has workaround instructions for 32 and 64 bit Windows 7.
