This is all about the campaign to rid the WWW of Internet Explorer 6 that has devastated web developers and held back the evolution of everything that blocks the tubes for far too long. This can not go on any longer!

I’m so sorry but i have to say that people who r using IE (any version) are as stupid as IE is in the way it loads a web page..

For the past year now, I’ve been designing for a baseline of IE 7, FireFox 2, and Safari 3. On *every* site I’ve managed (a total of 10, across three broad age ranges), IE 6 is under 20%. On the more tech-savvy sites, IE 6 is somewhere near 4%.

I haven’t gone as far as using a JavaScript to tell users they’re behind the times, but I have considered it! I’ll only fix glaringly obvious bugs in IE 6 nowadays; and I’m using 24-bit PNGs without any holds now. If someone has IE 6, they deserve to see the grey!

IE6 was a great browser when it was released (2001)…. but now people must understand that they have to update it (for safety and compatibility).

Alas I don’t see IE6 going away just yet. The majority of remaining users are probably those locked into corporate set ups with no option to upgrade their browser. These organisations have obviously decided not to “upgrade” to Vista so we are quite possibly going to have to wait for the next release of Windows to be out and stable before we begin to see the numbers drop further. 2010?

Thanx a lot to Google. Hope many users of IE6 will drop their old-fashioned browser and finally use one of the contemporary browsers.
