Many companies use enterprise managment software from SAP to run their business processes. For a long time, the "web interfaces" SAP provided worked with IE6 and nothing else, meaning that companies who bought into SAP were stuck with IE6. It wasn't until very recently that IE7 became an available option. The culprit is heavy reliance on ActiveX and lack of concern for portability.
