Every month, the good folks from the Net Market Share reveal the current status of browsers and operating systems. Now, let's see how various Web browsers fared in the last month.


The Internet Explorer has continued its massive dominance in the market. Internet Explorer 8 remains the most used Web browser. The stats suggest that more people have started using IE8, as its share went up from 21.25 percent to 21.56 percent. At the second sport surfs Internet Explorer 11, the current version of the giant Web browser. Its share has gone down from 17.01 percent to 16.78 percent.


The biggest fall has been marked by Chrome 35, whose share went down from 12.5 percent to 9.08 percent. Whereas, the recently launched Chrome 36 has already snagged 5.72 percent share. It’s absurd that people are still using Chrome, despite the fact that it is after their laptop's battery.


In some other changes, the share of Internet Explorer 9 surged a bit from 9.03 percent to 9.06 percent, whereas, Firefox 30 also climbed up from 5.62 percent it had a month earlier to 9.27 percent.

It's hard to get IE users to move away from IE. I was one such user for several years until I forced myself to get used to Google Chrome. One of the best decisions in my life.

In 1998 Internet Explorer 5 beta was released.

Mozilla was 0.5.

Google Chrome was not around.

Netscape was around 4 I think.

So why is it I.E. is at 11 after 16 years, google chrome at 36 after 8 years, firefox at 32 after 16 years?

IE 11 is actually very good. Very responsive and secure enough, especially the 64 bit version.

Google chrome is getting worse now. I have never been fond of chrome nor will I be in the future, mainly because Google's notorious privacy records.
