Easing the transition from IE6 to using newer browsers…

Thursday, April 2nd, 2009 at 11:25 am

Here’s an idea to help those people in your office move away from IE6 to realmore modern browsers.

  1. Install FireFox or Opera on their machine
  2. Remove the Internet Explorer icon
  3. Replace the Opera or Firefox icon with the appropriate following ones
  4. Tell them when there’s any confusion that “Microsoft updated their browser, it looks different now!”
