Do you have a link I can reference? The MS site keeps directing me to IE8 pages. I did find a third party report that reports 2014. http://www.sitepoint.com/blogs/2009/08/18/microsoft-support-ie6-2014/ But I haven't found anything official from MS. -Bill On Wed, Jul 21, 2010 at 3:23 PM, Erik Goldoff <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: How about because IE6 is END-OF-LIFE and no longer supported Erik Goldoff IT Consultant Systems, Networks, & Security ' Security is an ongoing process, not a one time event !

I would like to build an argument to stop supporting IE6 and also help encourage users to upgrade. Does anyone in the group have any good arguements about using or supporting IE6? Our readership is 10% IE6. So marketing is screaming support it. The developers are saying its junk anyway and they need to be off it. I have my own opinions on it but would like to recommend a "general industry opinion". So, what sayeth the industry? -Bill ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
