Microsoft is ending support for all versions of the Internet Explorer browser except for current version 11.
On January 12 Microsoft will announce that people still running IE 8, 9 and 10 that their time is up and urge them to upgrade to the latest version of the browser.
This means no more bug fixes, updates or other patches will be released, leaving those editions vulnerable to malware and other security threats.
According to CNET: Internet Explorer has been losing steam in the past few years, while newcomer Chrome has surged. IE's worldwide browser market share on desktops dropped from 58.2 percent at the start of 2014 to 48.6 percent in December, During the same period, Google-owned Chrome's share rose from 16.4 percent to 32.3 percent.
