Everyone wishes they could get rid of IE6, and now there’s a nice, elegant way to prompt users to upgrade!  The website for IE6Update provides a snippet of code to place between the <head></head> tags on your website, which will then trigger a small warning bar on users of IE6 prompting them to update to IE8.

I liked the idea so much, I decided that rather than simply copy their code snippet for my website, I’d make a handy little WP Plugin I could install on any of my sites.  Save me editing themes etc!

If you want the plugin, here it is: Download
