After the campaign to remove Internet Explorer 6 from computers worldwide started, there have been a lot of feedback saying that the users that still struggles with IE6 is users on company computers, without admin rights and then unable to upgrade or install an other browser.

But there is a solution to save them as well, while their IT departments are sitting on the fences watching, not doing anything about it. What you can do, if your sorry ass is affected by incompetent technical staff, is to get a portable version of a better browser.

I’ll guide you to two different browsers that works from a USB stick, Opera@USB and Firefox Portable . None of these are official versions of the browsers, but both runs the newest versions of the browser.

If you don’t have a USB stick you can install Google Chrome, that don’t require administrator rights to install.
It’s your choice.
