Debugging JavaScript in IE7

I need to debug JavaScript in Internet Explorer 7.

Unfortunately, its default debugger doesn't provide me with much information. It tells me the page that the error showed up on (not the specific script) and gives me a line number. I don't know if that is related to my problem.

It'd be nice if it could narrow down the error to a line number on a specific script (like Firebug can).

Is there an addon to debug JavaScript in IE7 like Firebug does in Firefox?

Thank you!

Does IE7 have a “developer mode” or plugin like Firefox/Chrome/Safari?

Web Development Helper is very good.

The IE Dev Toolbar is often helpful, but unfortunately doesn't do script debugging
