The stats I found indicate that it is less than .5 percent for
Netscape 4 and and IE 5 or lower combined.. Beyond maybe ensuring that
the content is readable and core functionality available, I wouldn't
worry about browsers that old. For the WebAIM site, they account for
about .15 percent of traffic, but more than half of our visitors are
using Firefox, so our stats are probably atypical.
