Your user base will probably best determine what browser is most
commonly used and in what percent’s (poll your logs if possible) but here’s
some general numbers I found: Microsoft Internet
Explorer Roughly 62% use IE-based browsers, with the percentage
dropping slowly as users switch to alternate browsers. About 26% use IE8, 14%
IE7, and 21% IE6, with the IE6 and IE7 percentages dropping as users upgrade to
IE8 or switch to alternate browsers: IE7 users are more willing to update than
IE6 users. Some still use IE5, with the number shrinking slowly as users
upgrade or switch, and with the numbers likely to shrink more quickly in
mid-2010 when support for IE5 ends. Browsers older than IE5 may generally be
considered extinct. Ref: http://www.upsdell.com/BrowserNews/stat_trends.htm From: Malka Cymbalista
[mailto:Malki.Cymbalista@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Does anyone have any
statistics as to how many people still use Internet Explorer 6? We are trying to decide
whether we can stop supporting it. Thanks for any
information Malka Cymbalista |
