Firebug equivalent for Internet Explorer

I am looking for a tool/add-on like Firebug on Firefox ( that is immensely useful for debugging web applications) which works for Internet Explorer. Any suggestions ?

-thanks

Go to Settings and select F12 Developer Tools in IE. I use IE10 and it works.

You can also press F12.

The usage is similar to Firebug. I like this interface more, it shows the color of all color-hex values for easy reference.

Also wanted to mention, for network analysis, similar to Firebug's Net tab, I don't think IE dev tools offers as good an alternative. You can then use Fiddler/Fiddler 2 and it's related plugins.

And another option for that that I like is ieHttpHeaders. It won't give you HTTP response body/data but it gives you the HTTP request headers + HTTP POST parameters (excluding file uploads, binary data, and multi-part form POSTs), and HTTP response headers. Good tool to have as companion to your other IE tools.

Microsoft provides the IE Developer Toolbar which provides similar functionality to Firebug.

You can also use Firebug Lite in IE6+.
