Actually it should -- MSXML3/IE6 supports both the new and old
namespaces.  If somehow you're using MSXML4 then the old WD namespace is
not supported.

Chances are rather excellent that you were not using the current XSLT
namespace in your stylesheets designed for the old browser. That's the
first thing to check. 

Does your original XSL use this namespace:

xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl  ?

If it does, that won't work in IE6, which uses the correct namespace
because it uses the MSXML 3.0 XML parser. 

I have a little IE5/6 help page posted at my site that may help you
figure things out, much of it, as usual, courtesy of other people:
