“The page cannot be displayed” IE ERROR on the big electronic billboard at the East Palo Alto Ikea store. [PIC] via  Peter Kaminski

IE is everywhere.

Here’s the classic Internet Explorer “page cannot be displayed” error message, as displayed on the big electronic billboard at the East Palo Alto Ikea store.

For you non-IE users, it reads “The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings,”

The brightness of this image or something made the display jumpy, which is why it’s hard to read. Other ads (the ones that actually loaded displayed fine.

My favorite part: the scroll bar at the bottom.
