Do you know someone who seems to have lost all pleasure in the internet? Do they seem listless or melancholy when you send them a link to a good news story? Have they given up and accepted that pop-ups are simply the price of looking at porn? Tell them that it's not their fault. They have a disease. And there is a cure:
Friends don't let friends use internet explorer

You should have link to a couple alternatives in that post. Whilst it is true, show them the better alternatives.
5uriv that is a nice sentiment, but this keeps things less complicated for the masses of IE users who barely know how to 'unzip' a compressed file. If you give people who have only used IE too many choices, most likely they will become confused, paralyzed by indecision, and ultimately dismissive.
Why bother giving them 20 different alternatives? This one is the simplest site to navigate and the best-supported open-source alternative to IE.
And the fact remains that Firefox is (at least in my opinion) the best alternative there is for the Windows crowd. Opera might be reasonably close, but it's pay software (and I used to pay for it. Until Firefox surpassed it).
Even in *nix, Firefox is probably the best. The only browser coming close to it is Safari, and most Mac users use it anyway.
