indeed it is and Microsoft was forced to inform windows users of the choice of browsers a little while ago BBC Click reported that one XP user worried that this was the result of malware installed on his machine. Often users ignore system messages anyway there are a few things at play here with these ie dinosaurs 1. The industry is still quite young and its users are not that knowledgeable of choices and whats to be gained 2. Humans are reluctant to make changes even when the offer is free of charge - humans fear change; change requires effort on behalf of the user 'we have dedicated systems that reply on IE6' surely *rely upon *dinosaur users exist in dinosaur environments - these systems are created by retro thinking developers who still despite all the evidence to contrary think that IE browsers have the jump on other browsers or feel it more important for the system to be consistently abysmal across browsers rather than acceptable in IE6/7 and better in ie8 and vastly better in everything else. Ninja squads need to invade the premisses of ie6 users and install something better! using ie should be considered a health & safety issue http://icant.co.uk/ie6-amelie/ - S On 14 June 2010 14:46, Stephen Gibbings <st...@stevegibbings.co.uk> wrote: > ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *******************************************************************
