I hate creating a separate IE6-hack stylesheet because it's just too troublesome. I couldn't figure why people can be stubborn enough not to accept a <em>free</em> upgrade to IE7. Very puzzling!

I've withdrawn IE6 waaay before you for I did not want to die for too much headache tweaking my design to fit IE users. Gosh! I HATE IE6. IE7 is fine. I don't understand why people still use IE6. stupid IE6. Maybe I should make such message like yours, teddy. It's a briiliant Idea. Great post!

I second your thoughts about IE6. In fact it's the amount of fixes and workarounds web developers have made for IE6 that causes Microsoft to be reluctant to improve their layout engine. And it's even funnier when IE8 team announces that they're not going to aim to pass Acid3 test... come on, Firefox 3 and Safari score at least 5 times better than IE8 :razz: Definitely!

IE6 does makes our [webdesigner] designing + coding process like HELL. im about to withdraw from debugging in IE6, but, i just can't do that yet. F**k You IE6.. you wasted my time! ergh! :twisted: Microsoft doesn't care with what we wanted to have? Are they stupid? We are the one who makes Internet is a must for their customer.. They're just such a loser in reaching better things, thats why they said it is nothing to chase for. Dumb You, MS! <blockquote>p/s: even me, who use Mac, has to use VM just to debug in IE6. my comment might sounds like im angry. yes i am.</blockquote> yup. you’re right.

I hate fixing problems that are specific to Internet Explorer because that's the problem with IE's layout engine and not your coding. Microsoft should improve on their layout engine and not depends on web designers to search for hacks and fixes. Have fun with Firefox 3!

It really gives me headache. It is good that all my bookmarks and settings are untouched after installing Firefox 3.0. Let me install first, and I will let you know my opinion on Firefox 3.0. :) Check out hp84's last blog post: <a href='http://www.hanping84.com/blog/2008/07/08/jang-nara/' rel="nofollow">Jang NaRa</a> My previous blog was a total mess, when I tried it with IE.

I try my best to make my sites compatible with IE6 as well though. Because a lot of my visitors still use IE6. I think it's worth going into your site statistics and see if you actually should cater for IE6 visitors. Lol I love your IE6 message there.

I primarily use Firefox for web browsing - the Safari and Opera browsers are for testing purposes only ;) you should really get Firefox 3.0 because it fixes a lot of bugs and there are new addons that are tailored to meet FF3's needs. But be reminded that FF3 installs <em>over</em> FF2. Don't worry, your bookmarks and settings are all kept intact.

I remember those days when I still use IE as my primary browser, keep on facing error every now and then. Currently, I am using Firefox as my main browser, but I have yet to upgrade to the latest Firefox 3.0. I heard positive and good review about this Firefox 3.0. Anyway, I am still using IE as my secondary browser, in case some application does not load properly with Firefox. I am planning to give Safari a try also.
