If you are one of the 90% Internet users who depend on Internet Explorer, then most probably you are annoyed by spyware and viruses and are considering an alternative to the IE. 19 million people have already downloaded the Firefox browser from Mozilla and are enjoying the pop-up free environment.
IE from Microsoft is losing its market share drastically. A recent survey conducted by WebSideStory Inc has shown that IE which had 90.5 per cent share in mid 2004 has now come down to around 88% share in the browser market.
IE users are switching to Firefox mainly due to security reasons as they feel that the latter is secure.
