I'm still seeing 17% IE6 use. And last weekend I figured out why. Was helping
my friend's dad with his computer. I went to Windows Update and got the old
"This is not a valid Windows license" message. So I ask to see his xp cd and
he hands me this old bootleg looking thing. Guy's 80 years old, using a
bootleg xp copy. He gives me his anti-Bill Gates speech. Then it hit me.
There's probably millions of these cd's out there - meaning millions of people
stuck on IE6 until they decide to shell out the cash for a legit Windows copy.
So I don't see IE6 disappearing for a long, long time. Sorry.
