The reason why my portfolio website does not work with Internet Explorer:
“Microsoft discontinued support for the product on December 31, 2005 and removed the application from their Macintosh downloads site on January 31, 2006. Microsoft recommends “that users migrate to more recent web browsing technologies such as Apple’s Safari.”
…
“At the turn of the century as browser competition increased, IE’s stronghold on the market dipped deeper than the Titanic and has become not just a source of frustration for programmers who need to concoct hacks to make things work specifically for IE, but it’s also a sad punchline. They even managed to completely alienate the growing Mac population by discontinuing development for that platform in 2003.

Conclusion: As far as Mac users are concerned/designers IE is dead to us!!!
