It's a site visited by the technically-oriented, who would be expected to use a browser other than the one foisted upon them. One of my "common-man" sites shows, for March: 1. MSIE 8: 30.8% 2. Firefox: 24.4% 3. MSIE 7: 18.5% 4. MSIE 6: 9.7% 5. Safari: 9.7% 6. Chrome: 2.7% That's still 60% for the browser-like object from Microsoft. -- -bts -Four wheels carry the body; two wheels move the soul

There is no statement with regard to their source, or time or method of data collection whatsoever.
