InvHost 2006 (or IH06 for short) was a major redesign of its predecessor, Inv-Host 2005. The hyphen in the name was dropped for aesthetic purposes. The redesign was published on April 29, 2006, albeit still on Keiji's home Windows server for the time being. On June 9, 2006, it was moved to proper web hosting, provided by Zernebok, at the domain invhost.com. Keiji has used Zernebok's hosting services ever since.

IH06 was the last of Keiji's websites to use graphics created in Serif DrawPlus; its successor Fusion Global used graphics rendered from SVG made in Inkscape. While Keiji has changed (and improved) graphical styles many times since, he has stuck with SVG as the ideal graphics format.

IH06 introduced the staple of today's Team Ikaria: the fileshare. However, file URLs were not yet finalized, and many had to be changed between the two subsequent renames.
