"and so it seems that not only has the percentage of Firefox users been increasing for the last 2.5 year but the rate of increase in the percentage of users has also been increasing. However I wanted to get a worse case senerio of when Firefox would overtake Microsoft Internet Explorer."

At least not by December this year.

Ok for people like my mum though.

EDIT: Yes I am being inflammatory because it sucks. Flame away I don't care.

IE7 tabs aren't quite as nice as the MSN Toolbar add in for XP, but it seems more stable under XP. IE7 under Vista is marginally less stable, but has the sandbox come code firewall embedded - Protected Mode


I think in a few months it will have the edge with a couple of cosmetic changes - maybe skins and a search highlighting etc.

I use IE only when running WindowsUpdate and debugging my ASP.NET application.

Honestly speaking I don't know why the number of useful plugin in Firefox would out-numbered IE that much. (In IE, all the BHOs are arguably falling in one or two types only - toolbar for adblocking and searching, then downloaders) Most developers should have been more familiar for IE right? But seems most who do have skills on developing IE pluggins are most interested in kidnapping IE preferences...

There are tons of IE plugins, but they're not all that widespread or talked about much.
