  1. Comment - Report: Firefox Past 10 Percent Share

    None helps more to FireFox than Microsoft. At the moment there is an not patched hole in the IE. Many users switched to FF. It is really ridiculous do not patch IE for such a long time. Our website already has 15% of FF visits.

    A wave of IE vulnerabilities started with Windows code leak, which happened a couple of years ago. This piece of windows code obviously included IE code and bad and good guys started researching it for holes. Here FF came and started gaining popularity.

    Another bad thing about IE and at the same time opportunity to FF is multiply IE versions. There are IE 3 versions: IE6, IE6 on Windows XP SP2, and IE7. The most disappointing fact that IE7 can not oust IE6, as it did with IE5 and IE5.5. Microsoft will not produce IE for windows 2000, therefore this browser diversity will remain. This is another good opportunity for FireFox, which is uniform on all platforms.

    I'm using FF now, through I still found IE quicker and more convenient
