Power Slide comes in two different release versions - a free version (creative commons licensed version - which has limited functionality) and a commercial version (Power Slide Pro which has full functionality and features as shown on this demo). Both versions have fully commented code, are SEO optimised, and are built up to web 2.0 standards (valid CSS and valid XHTML). Both versions can be compared here, the Power Slide Image Rotator (standard free version) can be downloaded from Theme Joomla, and Power Slide Pro can be purchased from HubStar.

So Theme Joomla have decided to redirect any site users using Internet Explorer 6 or less to a unified point (standard .html file) which will inform the user to upgrade there browser, and give them links to sort it all out. Return to the site after the browser has been upgraded (to Internet Explorer 7 or above) and the site will load with no problems.
