Can you use firebug lite to debug IE 8 without injecting code?

Question

Is there anyway to download something for IE that allows me to debug IE 8? Is there a downloadable version of firebug lite that does not require placing code in the head of my file?

While Firebug is amazing, and Firebug Lite is handy, for debugging IE I highly recommend IE's Developer Tools - just hit F12.

If you do not need Firebug specifically, you can use Internet Explorer's developer tools. To open them, press F12 or select Tools -> Developer tools from the program menu.

The IE developer tools are not as good as, let's say, Chrome's, but they might be able to do what you need.

I think you can find some more info about them here.
