Netscape

and more

Yes, but that is from a technical website, here are the actual statistics:
2006 IE7 IE6 IE5 Ffox Moz N O
March 0.6% 58.8% 5.3% 24.5% 2.4% 0.5% 1.5%
February0.5% 59.5% 5.7% 25.1% 2.9% 0.4% 1.5%
January 0.2% 60.3% 5.5% 25.0% 3.1% 0.5% 1.6%

And as you can see, Most everybody DOES use internet explorer... XP is the most popular operating system, and because of that, every computer-illiterate person who gets a computer uses it's default browser: Internet Explorer. There is absolutely no reason for people not to use IE, especially when vista comes out with 7.


EDIT Rats... the table didn't show up... It shows about 63% who use some form of IE and 25% who use FF.
