Mozilla (Firefox) has gained an overall average of 1% more marketshare over Internet Explorer.

Internet Explorer has held more than 95 percent of the browser market since June 2002, and until June had remained steady with about 95.7 percent of the browser market, according to WebSideStory's measurements. Over the last month, however, its market share has slowly dropped from 95.73 percent on June 4 to 94.73 percent on July 6.

A loss of 1 percent of the market may not mean much to Microsoft, but it translates into a large growth, proportionately, in the number of users running Mozilla and Netscape-based browsers. Mozilla and Netscape's combined market share has increased by 26 percent, rising from 3.21 percent of the market in June to 4.05 percent in July, Johnston said.

"It takes a lot to get someone to change their browser. It's been years since anyone has been willing to do this in significant numbers," he said.

IMHO Mozilla has an even higher market share than this when you look at non-newbie websites. And also consider that every AOL user is practically forced to use IE so all those millions get lopped in. I feel Mozilla really has broken the 10% market share with the 0.9 release of Firefox after studying various website logs.

I plan on using Firefox when a more stable version comes out.

We also have to keep in mind that a lot of our personal sites are tailored to our hobbies, and are linked to from technical sites be it domain names or hosting.

The visitors coming to that kind of site are more up to date with whats happening online. I'd be interested in seeing a more generic site like tsn.ca or espn.com and seeing what their browser percentages are like.

Awesome, thanks for bringing us the news aww.

IE 95% -- Mozilla 5%

That's a long, long way to go...
