- guiambros 13y agoNo IT manager worth its salt should be relying on a free, unsupported, 'as-is' version of a hack in the first place. And even less something that was always intended to be a quick workaround for users under very strict (or lazy) IT organizations that didn't upgrade to a decent browser in years. Kudos to Google for creating and supporting it, until now. Time to take off the training wheels.
- camus 13y agothe same IT managers that are "supporting" deprecated browsers and os that will never be updated anymore ? Who's going to fix newly discovered exploited ?
- j-kidd 13y agoThat's the beauty of Chrome Frame. In most cases, it gets "deployed" without needing any approval from IT. Chrome for Business looks like a solid and proper upgrade path, but it does require a semi-progressive IT team.
- reeses 13y agoHah, this shows what you know! If a browser plugin for IE6 causes problems, we just remove more sites from the whitelist on the proxy! You can Google, but you can't follow any of the results. :-)
- jon-wood 13y agoThese are the IT managers who haven't updated from IE6 yet. Something tells me they're not really that concerned about security in the first place.
