meanwhile IE 5 is alive in Wichita Kansas. Error message received today: HTTP_USER_AGENT': 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows NT; DigExt) because the old thing doesn't like URLs without a protocol: //ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js <WSGIRequest path:/ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js/

Because it is off XP life support now.
XP has life support turned off, however, it'll still survive for a few years despite that. The end of MS support doesn't seem to have caused any mass migrations off of windows XP, and it will be a long time until it's less popular than windows 8.

#15Re: IE6 is dead
#16Reports of its death are, from my experience, greatly exaggerated. It's still fairly widely used in businesses; as they say "if it's not broke, don't fix it." (Despite the fact that it is broken on many sites.) For anyone that wants to use a modern CSS framework that supports IE5.5+, check out Min ( http://minfwk.com ). Disclaimer: I made it.

We run a SAAS app. We recently saw IE4 in our logs. Not a single one of our customers has upgraded past IE8. IE6 is alive and well in many large companies.
Consider the possibility that someone was playing with old browsers.

Yes, I'm afraid reports of IE's death have been greatly exaggerated.
