    If they have automatic updates enabled in winxp for example the newer browser is available to download. I don't know if it will automatically download and install it for you if you have it set to automatic. I choose notify me, but don't automatically do it or install. I prefer to see and know what I'm getting and manually selecting what I want or don't want. Some do have it set to auto though. I never tried auto to see if I would automatically get updated to the latest browser or not. In my case it says ie8 is available, but I don't want to install it yet. I am sticking with ie7 for now. Perhaps with auto updates you would get it though. IE6 is pathetically slow at loading some sites that have new technology and programming. IE7 and ff loads almost instant, and ie6 takes forever for the same site.

    Yeah microsoft is also trying to kill IE6 but they can't. The main problem is it comes with XP. They should have a separate update for IE alone which runs in background.

    Atleast by now microsoft should realize this issue, and should provide installers like chrome. You will be downloading only 532kb file which in turn downloads the latest chrome. This can really help, i have seen many people who download the installers only for one time run it for years.

    IE updates comes through windows updates but since a lot of people use pirated OS they keep windows updates off, its a good suggestion that the browser update should be given through browser itself.

    My main concern in IE6 is its safety from spyware. I do have experiences on this in the past that is why I transferred to firefox.

    There's already such function available. It's called Windows Update, which detects all Microsoft programs and automatically upgrades to latest version.
