Re: Massive bug in IE

I believe that IE 6 has been not recommended for use for a long time. Granted all versions of IE as well as all software in general has problems but staying with recent versions certainly minimizes them. At least Microsoft acknowledges problems when they are found and provide fixes whereas some other software vendors just ignore them.

> IE 6 has been not "recommended"

But isn't IE6 still fully "supported" (even if not recommended).

Do you seriously believe that!?!? There are still security holes from years ago that hasn't even been patched and Microsoft has been warned.

How will the NSA or FBI access your computer if they fix it?
