Default What's your current Browser? - 14th March 2009

What browser are you using right now?

According to the W3schools.com (http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp) latest market share statistics for February 2009:

IE8: 0.8%
IE7: 25.4%
IE6: 17.4%
Firefox: 46.4%
Chrome: 4%
Safari: 3%
Opera: 2.2%

What took Safari ~3 years to accomplish, Google Chrome did it in 5 months.
Mozilla Firefox is in its peak.
Microsoft is trailing now; I guess IE8 will provide a good base and a new start for Microsoft to regain the lead if they work on fixing IE8's memory usage.
Yet while comparing IE8, Chrome & FF3, the results are surprising: Check it out! (http://lifehacker.com/5044668/beta-b...ich-is-fastest)

ppl using IE are just using IE because of windows update thing
that's it
IE offers nothing special , instead of spending too much memory
long live firefox 2 (and not 3 if u ask me)

I started using Google Chrome since it was first released and found really good to use.

usually rare are those who download an apple application on a normal PC, the usage of safari is low because the usage of apple mac is low...

once the prices of apple fall (what will never happen), you'll see safari invading these stats

i use firefox 3 and i am very satisfied with it..

i downloaded IE8 on another computer and it is very corrupt... it freezes a lot. all in all, i wish i could use something other than Windows and anything that's not Microsoft..

i also respect google chrome.
firefox is a must, because some stuff won't work on other browsers.

those who use chrome did you read the fine print before you clicked accept? you're under constant surveillance and you approved of it.

I use Firefox, but I don't think the website you posted is reliable

Here is the marketshare of browsers for February, 2009
