- My prediction is that in Jan. 2010 still 10% of the users will use IE 6.
  But somewhere you have to make that big cut ...

- Last week I used a library computer and an internet cafe computer and they both were using IE6.
  
  Before recommending users upgrade to IE8 make sure your templates are working properly with IE8.
  
  My issue has still not been resolved:

  I believe the article doesn't suggest upgrading to IE8, but I may be wrong, I believe it doesn't take any position on which browser to use. If there is a recommendation in there it may be for Firefox or Safari, but I do not believe IE8.

  A great and enriched site is difficult to achieve if we take ie 6 into consideration
- Quick tips::
  1) Clear your browser cache if changes dont reflect
  2) Provide link to your site to help us help you better
  3) Use in firebug
