Surprisingly, Japan and Russia still register with 1.7 percent each. When Microsoft retired Windows XP alongside Office 2003, it also laid to rest all versions of Internet Explorer below 9, in order to ensure that everyone rocked a browser with support for modern standards and web technologies. Regardless, what kind of websites these users see on Internet Explorer 6, and how they are displayed, remains and utter and unqualified mystery. Plain HTML pages, perhaps?]]>

Step your game up, China! That’s a scary high percentage! :p I’m just teasing, but it’s amazing to think that’s the browser so many people are still using.
They probably can’t upgrade due to pirated copies. They probably didn’t patch for years.
I wish they could find some more specific details on this. For instance, the avg age of IE6 users or how active they are on the internet. I would guess older and not very active, but who knows.
