[sorrow]

I was working on a project to do this, and I had made considerable progress. But when I decided to show it around to "some places" the reaction was overwhelming towards not to do it that I became discouraged and stopped.

Perhaps now the reaction has changed, as you seemed to receive a positive response. Or perhaps this is a selected community.

Many people in this field do not want something like this to become around though because it is such an easy target.

The other problem is many of IE6 are corporations and corporate machines. This will not help them, only other users.

I will re-investigate.

I guess there is no good way to weeding out IE6 from corporate environments. Maybe MS should just revoke their licences to use IE6 and sue them?

It's interesting question in general how to weed harmful piece of software out of ecosystem.

raise a fund to pay the license fee to upgrade everyone still using windows 2000 or less that are indelibly tied to IE 6?

That is disheartening to hear sorrow (wow the name matches). Honestly this just made my eyes glitter with hope that we can finally drop all IE support. Its an internal web-app and some terminals our users use must have IE6 because of compatibility issues with other crummy web apps (upgraded to 7 recently) which means we just need to test in google chrome and Firefox and were almost guaranteed to work in safari and guaranteed to work in actually all major browsers :). Its perfect! God I love google sometimes.
