Yes, IE6/7/8 really need to go. I don't know why they can't force update everyone similar to Chrome.

- PeterisP 13y agoA bunch of old megacorp in-house webapps would break if the IE would move from 6 to 7+.
- dragontamer 13y agoBecause a number of users (IIRC, South Koreans especially) rely on the incompatibility of IE6 to view a number of their websites. (Something about certain ActiveX controls being government mandated) Force upgrading people from these older versions will break a significant fraction of the web, at least for some users. It might even be a legal issue in South Korea.
