Users given the choice will always take an up to date software over old rebadged software.

If M$ were to lose the advantage of bundling IE with the OS and large corporations started supporting Firefox, I suspect IEs lead would all but disappear.

Dmitry has a point. Chrome is a more interesting competitor than IE for several reasons. Chrome and Firefox are both attractive browsers to tech savvy people. Also, Google’s use of Mozilla as a proxy against Microsoft aside, the two open source browsers are apt to start exchanging parts any day now. No doubt IE will slowly try to assimilate these innovations, but it might take them awhile.

You’re going to compete with Chrome sooner or later, and that will be an interesting battle, taking into consideration relations between Mozilla and Google;)

its interesting to note that more people use firefox compared to other browsers over the weekend than during the week. i think this i still an indication that companies have taken slower to adopt firefox than have individual people.

If Net Applications relies on measurement by advertisements being hit by the useragent string, would the number of people with Adblock Plus installed ( the most used extension voluntarily installed according to https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/compatibility/report/3.1 ) in Firefox mean that the reported percentage is lower than the actual percentage?
To Eugene: if a bank is not working properly with firefox their own site stats aren’t what to go by, and you could point out to them countries where 1 in 2 people use Firefox
