The root of the problem is not IE specific behavior, but lack of auto-updating feature. If MS doesn't remove a barrier between versions, nothing will change.

  This was already addressed in msie10 or maybe possibly earlier. Auto updates are enabled by default.

    I think they meant feature updates, not security updates. And those come not very frequently, but agreed, even then, they are automatic (unless some moron disabled Windows Update).

      That was what I meant. IE now auto updates to the latest version. That means new features.

        But you won't get shiny new features every six weeks, which I feel is what most of these comments are aiming at.

    ... and every IT department is forced to deploy a Group Policy which disables them.

      But they do the same for other browsers, so really it just puts everything on the level.
