ok Suzanne just wanted to make things clear
As to web browser I'm subscriber to security focus mailling list and it is unbelievable the number of security flaw that allow code execution in ie6. this browser is not only buggy its hole for script kiddy to get right in you're pc

I think what happened with ie is that microsoft gave it away free with their operating systems and advertised it as the standard, so people tended or still do, to think its the web browser. or something like that.

I didn't see your post as a hate message, druagord. No worries. Just continued the thought.

I think that your browser may have cached the page? try

Suzanne sorry if my post was seen as a hate message i was just trying to expose some facts. i don't want to start a flame war but english is not my first language and even in french I am a bit too direct sometimes

Good idea -- I've got additional info on browsers up at sitebasics.net. It's true -- people don't realize they have a choice, unless someone tells them.

Because people don't know they have an option. I say let's wage a pro-browser campaign. Not anti-ie, but pro your favourite browser, like Megan does with Opera!

Banners! happy feelings! share the love!

I still don't understand why ie6 is the most popular browser. I have seen and heard at least about 20 storys like this one

I use Safari and Netscape/Mozilla/Camino, et cetera, unless testing...

You can't choose security and choose IE... not possible:
