awesome hack. I design skins and it's always IE that causes the problems as it doesn't render anything right. You'd think Microsoft could build a decent browser by now. Especially when you get free products out there that are much better.

However like others say, look at the traffic your blocking :(

1. IE is also free.

2. IE8 is as "standards compliant" as any other browser currently.

3. ALL browsers have quirks. If you can't design websites or forum styles that don't render at least decently in IE, Firefox, and Opera, you probably should find something else to do.

4. Blaming any browser for your coding errors is puerile.

Additionally, if you do any professional development you must learn to work with all of them.

You are all right we do have to work with IE it is still over 90% of traffic, but this mod still makes me chuckle, it is something we all would have wanted to do at one time or another, it is a bit like wanting to send your mother in law to the North Pole for a VERY long time LOL!!!

Windows 7 users in Europe have a choice, on what browser they want to use. Internet Explorer does not come with it.

I still think alot of people will use IE.

Nice mod, but not for me.

Excellent plugin! Just what I was looking for (it's possible to do this via htaccess, which I've done before, but a plugin is just as fine). I may alter the plugin with a customised HTML page just to get the message through.

Indeed, boycotting Internet Explorer is an important move in the right direction to support internet security and web standards. Microsoft should just leave the browser business altogether.

I nominated this plugin for the MOTM.
