At one I know's workplace he claims they still run Firefox 2, why? The system is locked down so there is little the user can do and the "admin(s)" are too lazy to upgrade.

I guess this with old browsers is something that will continue no matter how easy the browser manufactures make it to upgrade. Its like IE6 its not going anywhere soon.
