The company I work for is stuck on IE6 for the "our intranet was coded for it" excuse, and has disabled the ability to update IE, even includes IE7 removal code in login scripts. And the IT dept doesn't really give a fig if the outside world doesn't render properly; IE is installed for viewing the intRAnet, period.
And to all of you spouting hard-core "you need to update, period" comments: there's a thing called "a budget" - most companies have one. A line item to "re-code all the intRAnet so it renders properly so we can update to IE7 so the intERnet will render properly" won't last long in today's fiscal environment reality.

You mean, you'd be missing a week's pay every 2 years? 'Cuz I get paid once a month.
And our Corporate IT folks say: If that Web site doesn't work, too bad. The intRAnet works fine in IE6. Get back to work.
