The problem with this is it's like deliberately hitting your thumb with
a hammer and saying, "I knew it might not be a good thing to do. But I

*OF COURSE* it'll hurt! You'd have to be retarded to think otherwise.
Well, using any version of IE and expecting something less than crap is
no different.
