This is a letter I had drafted to metlife when they told me the same.... I am a metlife coustomer and also a IT person. I also look after security of my company and have done security audits on my company behalf. Please note that yes ie is the most popular browser in the world agreed. But that does not mean that if a person sees black that is the only colour in the world it just means that he is blind. Agreed that people use ie but please note that firefox since launches has more than 50 million downloads. Also nor do I say just firefox please note all applications have to be cross browser ie , firefox, opera & safari and any company that deals in ecommerce will tell you this. Now it's follish to exclude 50million uses isn't it Also plese read http://www.bbspot.com/News/2005/01/firefox_vs_internet_explorer.html Now again these are not my EMOTIONAL attachments to firefox but please read all 5 rounds between ie & firefox http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-10442_7-6656808-6.html?tag=btn Note the above links are not owned by me but by reputed companies. Please note that I am on linux and not windows. All my software is legitimate. IE to run would require me to break this norm even if it means running on WINE. So if the person is asking me to break norms or buy software to make his software work is asking for me to file a case against him or company for forcing me to do spend money and breaking the right of freedom act. Oh and if it is a US company all the more the better. Also can I have this guys company's name I want to post it on the hall of shame of the linux comunity.
