I mean its ok if your client is fine if the thing doesnt work in IE 6 but majority of the people who surf the web tend to use IE so I think web developers should take that into account while making web apps .

A screen reader will simply ignore it and continue to read the document without interruption. Really you should never need to leave the alt blank, because if the image is purely part of the design it could be added using CSS.

Certainly if you want an image to be found by bots then use the alt attribute, though the way you word the alt text should be carefully considered.
