@ember - Ya, 25% from the web browsers still use IE6! Research done by CNet.

@Saad Kamal - IE five? In a BANK? =O That's.. worrisome! @MiKa SH Wee - I was referring to those who still use IE6 on a daily basis. If you're using FF/Safari/Chrome then great! By all means..leave IE6 to rot! =P

I read from CNet that chrome got some ad and personal details problem. Google will try to put ads in their web browser by some time and every words you type in can be traced by other hackers. Unless you don't use the remember password function. It also has a good function that can privately search or click in for personal 'secrets' viewing, not knowing by other same pc user.

well, there's not much reason for us to upgrade to IE7 or even IE8, after all those stories floating out there, saying how much resources IE consumes and how much adware it brings in... everybody's just happier with firefox and dont bother to upgrade IE... (im using safari and IE6 too, as my secondary browser, and now chrome XD)

It's great to learn that the IE team are improving on their browser.. but no matter how polished their latest version is, there are still users out there who are still happily running IE6..which is the real pain in the ass for web developers. =(
