IE6 Worldwide

The most recent statistics according the IE6 Countdown shows that the world as a whole is at 10.9% usage on IE6. The United States, Turkey, Canada, Brazil, Russia, Autstralia, New Zealand and the UK are at the top (bottom) of the list with under 3% of overall browsers running as IE6. Norway leads everyone at 0.4% and their neighbors in Finland are at 0.8%.

China, on the other hand, is still behind everyone else by far with 33.9% on IE6, followed by South Korea  at 22.3%.

Soon, the number worldwide will drop below the 10% mark, and eventually it will be gone. It won’t be missed.
