Disable all JavaScript and jQuery in one HTML page

Question

I have a WordPress website and I have installed one plugin and the plugin has some problems in IE6 browser.

So, I want to disable that jQuery plugin when the page is viewed with the IE6 browser.

So now I need a jQuery statement to disable ALL other statements that are loading from other JS files.

You'll have to be a lot more clear on what you really want to do. Do you want to disable the entire page in IE6? One might also ask why, in 2014, you are even worrying about IE6? You could just hide the whole body content on IE6 and inject a one line message that says that IE6 is not supported. — jfriend00

use Downlevel-revealed conditional comments :

<!--[if lte IE 6]><![if gte IE 7]><![endif]-->

<!-- keep your script in between these two comments, 
it will work in all browser except ie -->

<!--[if lte IE 6]><![endif]><![endif]-->

I'm not entirely sure why IE6 is even on your agenda, but to each their own.

If it were me I would write something like this.

<!doctype html>
    <!--[if lt IE 7 ]> <html class="ie6"> <![endif]-->....
    .....


(function ($) {
    "use strict";

    // Detect IE 6
    var greatGreatGranddadsBrowser;
    if ($('html').is('.ie6')) {
        greatGreatGranddadsBrowser = true;
    }

    if (greatGreatGranddadsBrowser) {
        // Remove the elements that you don't want loaded
        // Tell the users to seriously consider coming into the real world
    } else {
        // Do whatever else you need to do 
    }

}(jQuery));
