Actually, it is one site, but it helps us maintain our Windows 2000 domain (used to add/delete accounts, monitor computer usage etc). A lot of the stuff it does needs Admin access to the network, and we didn't want Admin passwords flying across the network in Cleartext..

Mind you, there is no excuse for Laziness. Sites should follow W3C standards. Not all of us use PCs running Windows and IE. Some use other browser, some other OSs and some (like me occasionally) use other devices entirely.
