One of my clients did an implementation on his site, year ago the

Google got hacked and that Microsoft asked users to abandon IE6, so I
suggested client placed a message about the security vulnerability.
The usage fell below 6% in a couple months, tough I can't be 100%
sure
it's the message that helped bringing down the percentage, but I
think
it helped greatly than a passive "You are using an outdated browser.
For a better experience using this site, please upgrade to a modern
web browser".

Or you lost a lot of IE6 users.
