I support your Death March and will keep encouraging my users to upgrade to other browsers. In March 2009 I will make my website unavailable for IE6 (or lower) users!

Josh of Eight7Teen says:

How many conditional statements, hacks, separate stylesheets, or even redirecting to separate sites are we going to put up with before we say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!?!?

I support this 250% dear sir, thank you! –Josh

David of Ciplex Web Design says:

Ciplex Web Design has officially dropped support of IE6 as of yesterday…

and there was much rejoicing!

Jeff Starr of Perishable Press says:

IE6 can eat a bowl up!

I kicked IE6 (and below) to the curb two weeks ago..

Good riddance! –Jeff Starr

Viperfish says:

Add me to this list. IE6 is cancer. Good riddance.

Brendan Cullen says:

Sign me up. Starting now, all new projects I design will serve up unstyled content to IE6 with a message to upgrade to a modern browser.

Level of snark in said message to be determined… –Brendan in Cleveland

Ardy of Anautix Studios says:

Two words: Death to IE6!!

or you know make em 3!

*we will, we promise :)* –Ardy

Bonsai Studio says:

It would be just about the time. it not only brakes us to make better (and beautiful) Web sites but it also makes us spend the double of the time on a project creating a real economic damage in our businesses. –Bonsai Studio

Jake of Himpressive says:

Internet Explorer 6 is like the house guest that has overstayed his welcome.

It is an eyesore to use and even worse to develop for.

IT managers that continue to force this browser on their internal networks should be tarred and feathered, then fired, and hire someone under the age of 70 to manage your systems.

On a side note, I feel that IE in general should be banned completely, but for now I’ll just stick to banning IE6!! –Jake Strawn

Guy of Adaptavist says:

We’re not dropping support for IE6 but we’re being extremely vocal about loathing it. We’re looking to charge double-rate for making sites work in IE6 in future to compensate for the extra time, pain and maintenance workload.

FYI, there is a Uninstall IE6 Day group on facebook – http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=32363753632

We’re doing our best to make sure everyone we know moves away from IE completely (we have no faith that IE8 will solve long overdue problems) and it gives us a lot of comfort seeing more and more people becoming vocal about IE death on the net. Keep up the good work! –Guy Fraser
