Agreed I have to run Win2000 on a laptop at work that is necessary to run some old legacy software that I use to interact with equipment that is still in service, equipment that the manufacturer is long gone. I used oldapps.com to find the last version of software released that will run on win2000, I think Firefox 12 and IE 6 was it. Fortunately, I don't need any of the multimedia apps. Btw, I run older IP cameras at home, good luck on getting streaming video working now using Java or ActiveX on the latest browser or latest java version.

I noticed your poll about operating systems. I use everything from Windows 3.1 all the way up to windows 10. Have close to a dozen Windows XP machines that I use on a regular basis for different tasks. Seldom use the Windows 10 machines . Prefer Windows 7 any day over Windows 10. Best web browser I found for older operating systems is SeaMonkey. Works great on Windows and Linux machines alike. trade15
