As a side note, is anyone thinking about abandoning IE6 testing? My numbers on IE6 market share show it is around 20%. (my sites are US based and tend to be "consumer" focused). Apple has dropped support for IE6 on their new me.com site. I feel like once IE6 drops to 10%, it will no longer be worth supporting.
I feel your pain, but remember that even Apple has less than 10% and most of us support Safari. (Granted, it's easier to support).
My figures show IE 6 has about 26 percent of the market and that figure is dropping about a percent a month. So I plan on supporting it for probably another two years.
The good side is that I'm pretty familiar with the problems that IE 6 presents and have solutions for them -- so, it's not a big deal for me.
How do most people even do IE 6 testing?
I do my testing on BrowserCam -- if it passes there, then I don't worry about it.
