This is a simple plugin that blocks all IE versions from viewing your website. I know some people will be crying foul, given that Internet Explorer 8 has taken steps toward web standards; however, it is far behind in both function and stability. In the same time that Opera, Gecko, and Webkit have been moving toward CSS3 functioning and XHTML 2.0 functioning, IE8 has been achieving well established CSS 2.1 functionality.

This plugin is for the most radical IE haters, it will do a simple match with the user agent string and block any trident engine based browser (msie). It will show a page recommending a different browsers (Firefox, Opera, Safari, and Chrome), picture below.
 
Wow this is a fantastic addition, but 60% of my members are using IE7 or 8.

Not being very PC literate, I think I'd drive them away if I used this mod.

Although I'd much prefer it if IE would disappear off the face of... internet world? :D
 
Just what I wanted as I had some display issues with ie and even though I made it clear to users that the site wasn't intended to be viewed with ie they still persisted and pointed out the display error at every given opportunity :) so this will save me some headaches - thanks - much appreciated.
