It's even logical to show a IE like 'updates' message instead of asking the user to install different browsers. Will try to put this variant of script in my another blog (yeah.. I do have more than one blog! :) ) Yes. It’s even logical to show a IE like ‘updates’ message instead of asking the user to install different browsers.

Usually that's the person who still uses IE6 and don't raise the question at work. They don't know the difference between IE6 and Firefox. Really. And then you give them a choice of four? Won't happen. http://ie6update.com/ is a better solution, which fools the user that IE needs a certain plugin to view this page, with notification similar to the flash and activeX plug-in notices. When clicked it redirects to the IE8 page of Microsoft. MS and Windows are environments similar to these users and they will feel more at home .
