Hmmm....stop IE6 you say?
What someone needs to do is register oh, I dunno, "www.stopie6.org" and offer some scripts, images etc that people can easily incorporate into their site.
This would display a funky "You are using and old, slow, non-standard, insecure and dangerous browser" type image into the page for any using IE6 (or spoofing IE6). Clicking the link would open a new window and take people to "www.stopie6.org" where they can then be directed to the legit MS upgrade and Mozilla et al.
Wait, what, this has already been done? Gosh-a-roonies BatBloke!
Why don't you money web mokneys stop moaning and do something about it? I think they campaign needs some help (blocking users is just stupid.
