Internet Explorer 8 support ending

Support for IE8 will be ending soon so it is important that all IE8 users upgrade their browsers.

A "nag" box will be appearing for IE8 users over the next few weeks to prompt you to do this. Links below for downloads :

Internet Explorer

If you are stuck on Win XP (and you really shouldn't be) then please look at alternatives such as :

Chrome

Firefox

Opera

IE 8 is used by a fraction of active users now, and we need to drop support to permit the future evolution of the site. IE 7 support was dropped well over a year now. IE is now on version 11.

Out of interest, which browsers are most popular on the site? Do you have any stats or are they a closely guarded secret? 🙂

No problem with putting this in the public domain.

This is just the users of Redhotpawn.com excluding other skins/mobile version.

The Android Browser crowd (and all mobile users), you deserve better. It is coming.

1. Chrome 32.02%
2. Safari 22.77%
3. Internet Explorer 19.80%
4. Firefox 18.49%
5. Android Browser 4.09%
6. Opera 1.12%

IE in third already (and only just), and IE8 usage is a tiny percentage of that. I look forward to embracing optimized libraries that exclude legacy support for IE's past mistakes.

Wow, Firefox is in forth, that is a surprise. Do your stats make a differentiation between Chrome and Chromium?

A reminder, this delayed update is coming shortly.

This is a final chance to upgrade to avoid disruption.
