Not for me. More likely a problem with the site than IE.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

All of the malware I worked with (RE) always killed the debugging tools in IE 11 so I stick with IE 9 or IE 10 for that and won't allow IE 11 on a system.

I have little complaints about IE11 or 10; they're both adequate web browsers. The only complaint I see is some old AJAX UpdatePanels don't always work and I tell the customer to switch to compatibility mode.

... a database, that was designed 25 years ago (SQL 6.5) and since then only upgraded, but never updated...

could be worse, they had ms-access 25 years ago too.

MS-Access isn't totally useless; I used it to write a single-user database to manage my book collection.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

And now imagine a 500+ company, managing its inventory (worth of millions), employee, customers, contact and so on, on Access...
(They where located in Lod, just near enough to get infected)

I know of a similar company ... but because they don't have "database expertise" they re-type reports from Access into Excel to send out to clients.
Yes ... I really did say "re-type"

Meh. Too new-fangly. Inventory management in Excel is all any real company ever needs! For that matter, Excel can handle ALL your data!

No, me neither.
How do you define upgraded vs updated?
Is an update 'throw everything away and start again'?
Windows was launched 35 years ago - has it been updated? Or upgraded?
Or both? I don't see the difference. Semantics...

update - take the schema as-is and put it on a newer version of SQL
upgrade - make changes to the schema using the new features of the new SQL

Ah OK, my mistake. Thought you were talking about SQL itself, not the database.
I suspect 99% of databases live as long as the product they serve without significant rewrites.

You are probably right. So I should add - the product has been updated 6 times (only major counted) since then... The original version was a desktop application in C and now it is a full web based including support for handheld devices...

Nope.
Database-theory has not changed. You state it was 'designed 25 years ago'; the word designed implies that it has been normalized.
Perhaps you prefer entities without any upfront design? (As in, evolving by Agile)

But we got better tools to get close to it...
Like using SF, Func, Trigger, XML data (as XML data and not string manipulated by SQL string methods), CTE, new kwywords, like OUTPUT, built in paging and so... We got a lot of it in the last 25 years...
