	Haha, I haven't seen anyone use the 0.59% one since I was in grade school in like 1994. Glad I guessed it anyway.

	Rycecube:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:01 GMT	7 points
	Looks like 46% of the people guessed it. Not I though... not I.

	Firefox rules!

	Who in his right mind uses the IE?

	Morbo:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:04 GMT	41 points
	Typed in "Google Chrome" and it didn't give it to me. Perhaps we can fix that?

	JohnJF:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:05 GMT	13 points
	I second Ernest. I also didn't know Netscape was still in existence, but at least I still guessed it.

	is there a difference between Mozilla and Firefox that i don't know about?

	billhune:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:08 GMT	39 points
	@puse: I'm with you. I thought Mozilla and Firefox were one web browser not 2 seperate ones. I thought it was called Mozilla Firefox

	jessicahope85:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:10 GMT	10 points
	well, i knew the top 5. i've used all of them, and my favorite is chrome. :) but, yeah, i also thought mozilla and firefox were the same :/

	gracie:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:12 GMT	9 points
	i'm surprised internet explorer still has that big of a share. i don't know anyone who still uses it as their primary browser.

	kcap1:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:17 GMT	15 points
	I think the people who use Internet Explorer are the people who don't know much about computers and just run what's on there originally. I'm personally one of the 0.70% who uses Opera.

	a joke: what is the most common use for internet explorer? downloading firefox. harharhar!

	Haunter:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:32 GMT	9 points
	@kcap1: how is opera, by the way? I downloaded it once but never used it.

	RobH:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:33 GMT	40 points
	@puse Mozilla was the predecessor of FireFox, but is no longer updated by the company. But it IS a seperate browser. No error by the quizmaster here.

	zalagreensbury:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:33 GMT	9 points
	Firefox is awesome cause it lets me opt to save my work after IE freezes up my computer and I have restart it the wrong way. It's like a lose-win situation lol.

	Haunter:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:34 GMT	21 points
	i'm totally downloading Access Netfront now. I'll be in the top 0.2 percent of cool.

	Bethannie:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:39 GMT	14 points
	Ummmmm I use IE....I'm completely unsavvy when it comes to computers! My laptop came with IE and that's what I use. I wouldn't have any idea of how to change or what to change to (I'd only heard on IE and firefox). I'm guessing most IE users are idiot technophobes like me!

	DLJessup:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:39 GMT	12 points
	@puse, billhune: In this case, Mozilla refers to the Mozilla Suite, an integrated browser/email client/HTML editor/etc. It actually predates Firefox and served as the open source core for Netscape Navigator 6 and 7. It has been released for community development as SeaMonkey.

	The IT guy at my job once told me that using IE is like having unprotected sex with the rest of the world. Of course, if 2/3 of the market share is using IE, then we're in a lot of trouble!

	Arthur:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:40 GMT	5 points
	Firefox is the current browser the Mozilla company makes. I used to use the browser Mozilla and it makes it much easier to edit web pages with a minimal knowledge of HTML, which is the only thing for which I use it now. And I don't know anyone who still uses IE.

	It's good to see that IE's share is down to 66% over the past several years of steady decline. But it's also a shame to see that Chrome is only used by 1.5%. It's a great browser and if you haven't checked it out, now is the time!

	cmkeller:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 19:57 GMT	9 points
	Isn't Netscape the name of the company, and Navigator the name of their browser? I tried Navigator and it didn't work, but that should have been the real answer rather than "Netscape".

	witulski:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 20:01 GMT	1 point
	Oh man, PS3 should could for Playstation.

	Mr_Negative:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 20:08 GMT	23 points
	I think my Grandparents make up the 0.59% using Netscape still. Their computer is from the Mesozoic era

	ie should be acceptable for internet explorer

	lol playstation. didnt know about mozilla being separate

	bfg1118:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 20:46 GMT	2 points
	@Bethannie just go to mozilla.com and you can download it from there. I agree that Chrome is great...except Facebook always freezes up when I use it.

	Mozilla has something called seamonkey (typing that in gives you Mozilla). I also would like to take this time to point out that Internet Explorer is complete garbage.

	Wow, I blanked out on Internet Explorer. Been sitting in front of a Mac too long, I suppose.

	DRB:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 21:22 GMT	6 points
	woop woop i'm one of the 1 in 1250 who don't use any of these! Avant Browser for me, find it excellent.

	Obviously I don't know the difference between a web browser and a search engine. I restarted the quiz about four times after entering Google and getting nothing. As it turns out the only one I got was Netscape.

	Detective:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 21:59 GMT	6 points
	Nice quiz. I'm a Chromehead now, as Firefox (believe it or not) was giving me problems.

	CCCarnie:	Jul 14th, 2009 at 22:04 GMT	3 points
	Sadly, I've used all of these at least once... And people actually use the Playstation Web Browser? I tried it a couple times, but it usually just pissed me off. I guess if I bought a keyboard for it, I wouldn't hate it so much.
