BBC NEWS | Technology | Microsoft backs long life for IE6.
I’m sorry, but if you’re still using Internet Explorer 6, you need to stop right this instant and upgrade. I don’t care if you’re using Firefox, Chrome, or one even Internet Explorer 8, you need to stop using Internet Explorer 6 RIGHT NOW. Cease and desist. Yank it out of your computer with extreme prejudice. Every one of your computer-using friends will thank you from the bottom of their hearts.
Please, stop reading this and get a new browser / upgrade now.
Thank you.
In order to upgrade from IE6, i’ll first have to install it. To do that, i’ll have to install Windows, since IE6 hasn’t been ported to Linux yet. Seems like an awful lot of effort to just get rid of it…
Considering how many folks have gone to the trouble of having Windows installed on their respective machines, I think there’s room for posting that folks get rid of it.
Uh… what is IE6? What is a browser?
Seriously, that’s reason number one why individual IE6 users don’t upgrade. All they know about using computers is how to click the little blue icon labeled “Internet”…
Now, corporate users are a different matter. Don’t know which of the two categories is harder to deal with.
