The newer browsers actually come with a lot of feature-induced security problems too. Microsoft continues to release security updates for IE7 so it might be better to use than a newer version of IE that could have HTML5 exploits.

    Interesting, but who's running Server 2008 as a corporate desktop OS?

      Everybody with a Terminal Server installation from 2008. It's actually surprisingly common :/
