IE6 is pants - user perspective - and fewer and fewer sites can be bothered to work around it.
But my employer, for one, won't change because they've "cunningly" designed every application for the past eight years to be browser based, and it would presumably cost £infinity to switch to a newer version.
I am amused that I can't get that lyrics link to work in Firefox.
And, while I'm not writing for it, I am constantly amazed at how appalling even the most recent versions of IE are. EVERY OTHER browser, ctrl+l highlights the URL bar. Apart from in IE, of course, where it 'helpfully' pops up a little box telling you to enter the name of 'an internet resource' and IE will fetch it for you. Because, of course, that was EXACTLY what I wanted.

Strange. Works for me with Iceweasel 3.5.12 and Konqueror 4.4.5.
