Interesting hack but I'm not sure of its use.

Thanks for sharing anyway

[Ziki]

it is only meant for [enter browser name] haters or the site just doesn't work in that browser

[MrPHD]

Installed and running ok. Thanks

[Ziki]

Glad somebody has a need for it

Thanks for this, awesome hack to force more to download FF or Opera!!!

Ban any user that uses IE is the way to go , there can be some benefits of it actually to keep them bots from trying to sign-up and spam your forums if you don't use CAPTCHA you know! A lot do use the IE library so this is a very useful hack indeed.

Possibilities of add-ons to this hack:

1. Perhaps a nice redirect to Mozilla or Opera would be a nice addition to this....
2. Multi-select which browser(s) are banned rather than just ONE type...


*Installed and waiting for these add-on requests patiently*

Yes I am considering those.
