jQuery 2.0 does not support IE before 9, as mentioned in the release notes:

As promised, this version leaves behind the older Internet Explorer 6, 7, and 8 browsers. In return it is smaller, faster, and can be used in JavaScript environments where the code needed for old-IE compatibility often causes problems of its own. But don’t worry, the jQuery team still supports the 1.x branch which does run on IE 6/7/8.

So either ditch these archaic browsers, or use old versions of libraries that still support it. But remember, there is a reason why more & more companies and websites stop supporting Internet Explorer versions before 9.
