I use many web browsers to surf internet. Most commonly I use Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer. Over the years the number of people using more than one browser has increased dramatically. Internet Explorer has been the most popular web browser for many users in different parts of the World for many years. However, the dominance seems to be fading away.

Statistics shows over the festive period last December, Mozilla Firefox achieved a major milestone overtaking Internet Explorer as the most popular web browser in Europe. According to statistics published by web monitoring company Statcounter, IE’s market share went from 44.91 per cent in January 2010 to 35.54 per cent in the final months of the year.

Google Chrome also increased its market share within Europe over the same period. Other web browsers such Opera and Safari is way behind the top 3.
