Nearly 8 years ago, Microsoft stopped developing IE for the Mac. Two
years ago in December 2005, they stopped providing support for IE for
the Mac. The following month, January 2006, they removed the
application from their Macintosh downloads and told Mac users to STOP
using Internet Explorer on the Mac. Your site is pretty much
guaranteed to break on Internet Explorer on a Mac, and IE/Mac can
cause other system problems, too, which is why Microsoft said to stop
it already.
Do your stats say that many people are using IE for the Mac? Is it
worth your client's money for you to tweak the site to work on the now-
buggy IE/Mac?
