Chrome FTW! once you get used to it 
43% of FF users
Firefox = 28
Chrome = 13
Safari = 10
Opera = 2
Is that actually %age of registered users or %age of hits over a certain period? For example, at work (especially just now while I'm on nights) I'll make a lot of hits with IE through not having the option of Firefox and having very little work to do. However at home, I use FF but won't make as many hits. Personally I think IE is used in the majority of cases more out of laziness than choice.
I love the way MS tells you to install the mitigation tool oh but user using XP may need to upgrade their OS :bang:
What about large organisations who have like somewhere in the region of about 3000 computers / 250 laptops and have not long just upgraded to XP from Win2K.
Fools - just make a decent enough secure browser and we wouldn't have these problems.
We have just upgraded our browser in work to IE8.
On my home computers I use chrome on my Windows 7 computers and Opera on my XP machine.

I'm currently studying and working in the IT industry and I use IE.
