There is a kind of hen-egg problem customers hear about browser support,
require us to do it! We have to include support, or loose the customer.We
support IE6, they require such support and we have infinite loop( while(1);)
Personally I HATE IE6, end of story. don't include support unless I have to.
There are  good browsers, for 3 ready to download!
Support for IE7 is a must, corporate environment still seats deeply in XP
environment, VISTA was poorly adopted and Windows 7 still in early stage.
