INTERNET EXPLORER 6, the default internet browser of Windows XP. It was released way back year 2001 and that was 7 years ago! I even had my first IE 6 in my old pentium 1, windows 98 se computer!

Evidently, this internet browser is outdated. Its page rendering engine is obsolete, outdated and incomplete. Internet is improving that's why browser software releases new versions. IE 6 DOES NOT SUPPORT alpha transparency of certain PNG image files, and PNG format is the best image format in terms of quality and compression ratio. Also, CSS sometimes renders incorrectly in IE 6. These are the reasons why IE 6 is not recommended in this site.
