Fails badly on IE6 w/busted userData

[mmastrac]

If you install the Utilu IE collection on an XP machine w/IE8 and test jStorage with the included IE6 builds, there is a failure on startup, and operations with jStorage throw an error: "c.__jstorage_meta.CRC32 is null or not an object".

I don't know if this is possible to see on a proper install of IE6 on XP, but the jStorage code should probably test whether userData actually works before relying on it. If there is no userData support, it should fall back to a mode with no persistence at all.

Do you really need to support a dead browser? (see http://www.ie6countdown.com/ -- BTW : this is an official MS site)

I'm just asking.

Not anymore! :)

Feel free to close the bug.

You're the owner of this issue :) I can't close it myself, but feel free to do so. I just stumbled across it this morning.
