I HATE being extorted into upgrading as well. But sites have
been like that for years now. It's like they all are in some
kind of "upgrade conspiracy". What the hell business is it of
them (websites) as to what browser people want to use? If they
knew what they were doing, their websites would work in ANY
browser! And, that is NOT hard to do, in fact, it's easier to
leave them as they were with older browsers (which of courses
work FINE with new browsers), than loading websites up with
this bandwidth-hogging resource-hogging browser-proprietary
garbage. I feel like "shooting them the bird" when I see that.

I know I'm a curmudgeon and often resist change, but this
morning I went to a website and it told me my browser is out
of date and I should upgrade to Internet Explorer 8 or
higher. It seems to me that it hasn't been all that long ago
since Internet Explorer 7 came out and that 8 has just been
out a short time. It's almost like car manufacturers
requiring everyone to buy a new car every year.
I'm not against the rapid improvement of software, what I am
against is making the older software obsolete so quickly.
End of rant!
