I really would like to ditch IE6 support, except as a
degraded-but--still-functional experience, but sadly the upgrade to
IE7 is not an option for most Windows users, as it only works on XP
SP2 - currently standing at about 23% of web users worldwide. (And of
these, how many are legitimate? IE7 also comes with the hated WGA
check.) I hope I'm wrong, though.
