Although both of the first two posters take the higher road and correctly code sites (for the benefit of decent browsers) before hacking it to work with IE, it's a big stretch to say that's the norm!
The sheer quantity of bank sites, shopping sites and other similiar 'must haves' (to some users) that only work with IE is incredible. Hell, add in good old iPlayer from the BBC which is IE only among other things.
A large number of high profile sites are designed to work with IE, and not even checked to see if they work with Firefox, Opera or Safari.
I'm glad some designers do what you guys do, but sadly everyone isn't.
