For security reasons alone, you should ditch IE6 | |

A big part of that story is security. Internet Explorer 6 is riddled with security vulnerabilities and does not contain many of the necessary anti-exploit mechanisms in newer IE versions. Microsoft’s new site mentions the security angle as well: | ||

What? No horror stories about Google's Android? OK, here is one: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703883504576186810666183384.html .
Google has a unique take on security - they don't do it - at all! Yet, they have 32% of the smartphone market. Yipes! |

#2: What? No horror stories about Google's Android?
I see you purchased the patented Parkkker Reality Deflect-O-Matic. While the article talks specifically about IE6 and how horrid it is, for some bizarre reason you're going on about Google's mobile OS. When even MS is calling IE6 crap, you 're allowed to deviate from the script. Actually, you might want to consider checking your Microbot subscription, as MS has been praising open source lately and you're still calling it "open sores" (haw haw!!) Maybe they lost your address when sending out the next batch of talking points? Google has a unique take on security - they don't do it - at all! They don't vet apps in their bazaar, and you somehow misconstrue that to mean they "don't do security - at all!". I'm not very surprised, as you seem to be unable to grasp a lot of concepts such as monopoly abuse and antitrust. Yet, they have 32% of the smartphone market. Yipes! People know a good thing when they see it, and they know a rotten fish when they smell it. What's WinMo7's market share again? Nevermind, nobody cares. |

I agree. IE6 should have been canned years ago.
But folks, IE8 (Win7 or not) is no safe haven. I still get drive-by malware install tickets for Win7/IE8. I was hoping for much, much better :( |
