Some people may be asking why IE6 was replaced and some people may be asking
why it was replaced with IE8 and everyone wonders why IE9 only runs on
Windows7... 

The only question that can be answered in certainty is why IE6 was replaced:

http://plugins.jquery.com/project/crash

If you add this function to your website, assuming jquery JavaScript link
has been inserted in your pages header, a simple call to the above function
will guarantee a surfer using IE6 may arrive at your site but they will not
remain long.
