The South Korean government has previously mandated XP/IE/ActiveX for
gov funded web sites, so you need IE and ActiveX to do anything official
in Korea. However, this ruling has been relaxed but I suspect the
investment in the technology is too much for most organisations to
change. I suppose, change will happen as sites get redesigned/rebuilt
but it will take time.

It's difficult to see how a moderate to large organisation that uses
Windows could change. It's a massive undertaking with a lot of costs and
risks for some marginal paybacks. This stranglehold is being eroded a
little by client-server computing models but it is still extremely
powerful.
