Many of them think they care, and believe they have some reason to not upgrade. When you're running IE 6 or 7 MS frequently directs you to a 'time to upgrade, here's IE 8/9' page so they've been reminded plenty already.
The reasons I've heard from users include that they:
- fear it will make their computer unstable
- believe their hardware can't handle it
- are comfortable with IE 6/7 and fear change
- don't understand the extent to which the newer versions are faster/more secure/more capable
- 'son/daughter/hubby/wife/computer tech told me not to change anything'

- code_duck 15y agoSometimes the person dispensing the advice isn't right. I've heard this from people who were running IE 7, after all. Using IE 7 is a big enough problem in itself.
