Do these corporations not have security issues with these old browsers?

[vinceguidry]

You're assuming corporations take security seriously.

[goldenkey]

The newer browsers actually come with a lot of feature-induced security problems too. Microsoft continues to release security updates for IE7 so it might be better to use than a newer version of IE that could have HTML5 exploits.

That support ends on April 8 of this year: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/enterprise/endofsuppo...

On WinXP. You can run it on Server 2008 and receive security updates until 2020.

Interesting, but who's running Server 2008 as a corporate desktop OS?

[pilif]

Everybody with a Terminal Server installation from 2008. It's actually surprisingly common :/

[taspeotis]

Probably no-one. I can think of a bunch of people who run it as a Terminal Server though.

[yuhong]

IE8 and older also have things like HTML+TIME which is used in at least one real world exploit, to name just one thing.

[singold]

Yes they have.

I work on one of those (I'm the webmaster), they didn't wanted to get me firefox or chrome, because of 'security issues'...
