Microsoft has recently basked in the success and popularity of the Windows 7 Operating System but one of their other mainstay applications hasn't been so fortunate.
For the first time ever, Microsoft's Internet Explorer web-browser market share has fallen below 60 percent, while the popularity of alternative browsers such as Mozilla FireFox, Google Chrome and Apple Safari continue to rise. Mozilla FireFox's market share is approximately 25 percent according to the most recent estimates.
So why the decline? Security vulnerabilities combined with slower browsing speeds might explain things. Or users are just looking for an alternative, rather than use what Redmond has to offer.
We made the switch to Mozilla FireFox from Internet Explorer about 3 years ago and haven't looked back since.
