IE6 as every developer knows is a real pain. The website killie6.com has given an easy solution to help drive people away from using IE6.  Here is my spin on killie6’s module.

The Idea

I liked killie6’s module, but I think it has to be a little more in your face. Originally I thought having something like a humorous 404 page would do the trick, but that would kill any sort of navigation of your site.  So I opted to create a lightbox that pops up if you’re using IE6, make the user feel painfully guilty for using IE6, then give them a way to upgrade right then and there.  Hopefully this will get the idea across to users not to use IE6.

If you like this idea please download and use it.  If you want something less obtrusive go with killie6.com.  Something has to be done, the browser is driving everyone CRAZY!…okay maybe not everyone…probably just me.
