Microsoft is dropping support (even extended support, so no patches will be issued unless they really want to) for Internet Explorer 6 at the same time that Windows XP Service Pack 2 comes out. This is gonna be the ugliest thing ever. The hijacks and security vulnerabilities are going to destroy what credibility IE has left.
The Windows Clock Is Ticking: "IE 6 for XP: Mainstream support for Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP Home and XP Professional already ended on December 31, 2001. But the extended support for these two products will terminate around mid-2004, simultaneous with the commercial availability of Windows XP SP2."
