Chrome has it right, it's always the latest version, and firefox is better than it used to be, but even then they didn't say "sorry, you need the latest windows to use this version, here, have this 4 year old version instead"
It's ridiculous, and I can't think of one valid technical reason for it
Now I am not involved with IE at all, but i think it's safe to assume that they are most likely using new APIs which are specific to that platform.
Now that's not an excuse, as they could write in fallbacks for platforms that don't have this, but it's definitely a valid reason.

it's a reason, but it's not a valid one. if it was then no one would write software that works on older windows versions.
