Ever heard of a mother who has joy in burying their own child? Generally society abhors such behavior. Since the virtual community is giving full support for Microsoft's goal of ending the world in Internet Explorer 6. Here in America they are one step closer to realizing that dream.
Internet Explorer 6 below 1%
The Internet Explorer team (now in its ninth iteration) published an article full of pride to call attention to the numbers of IE6 checked by the company Net Applications. The company ended 2011 with only 0.9% of all U.S. users using the infamous browser.
This is the first time in history when Internet Explorer 6 figure below 1% in research for the United States. It means that the battle has been successful, with the Internet gradually putting aside the browser released in 2001 (from within Windows XP natively, remember).
Here in Brazil we are coming to bury IE6. The data from Net Applications found that the browser appears in 1.4% of our computers. A reasonable level, but the intention is that these facilities are replaced by more modern applications (relying on the MS, the most current IE).
Meanwhile, China remains a leader in using Internet Explorer 6. 25% of Internet users remain with the old browser. Something tells me that this percentage has to do with the amount of pirated software circulating in the country, not to mention the delay you have to renew as large an installed base of computers.
This way Microsoft announced it will force a refresh of Internet Explorer 6 for something more modern. Even on computers with pirated Windows, you see.
