"I do not want to respond to the flames of someone who claims to be
THE professional"
Are you talking to me? I didn't claim to be anything Ms. hypocrite 2006.
You cause offence and then say 'your only point is..' and 'final
point', signed with a smiley face. Does that mean I should ignore your
negativity and insult or does that just make you a hit and run driver?
Thanks for educating everyone that IE6 isn't safe and usability isn't
good.
Good luck with Ms. 2011. I'll be voting for you.

I do not want to respond to the flames of someone who claims to be THE
professional.
People who know me since 2006 know also my skills.
I'll take the offense and that's all. The point of my post is:
1. security
2. usability
1. People generally don't patch neither browsers or operating
systems so
that MS has been forced to make automatic updates very, very sticky
and
difficult to disable.
If you run an obsolete browser, then it's very likely that you get
infected, somehow, some day. Point one.
2. Poor usability is harmful for users. Point two.
Also accessibility is affected.
Dropping support means simply stopping providing pages that look
well in IE
6 and 7. Simply provide a page with less appeal and functionalities.
It's better to have one page less appealing, than an hundred users
infected.
Final point.
