Internet Explorer's European market share has decreased noticeably since Microsoft rolled out its browser ballot screen to EU Windows users, according to new data from net research firm Quantcast.

Redmond introduced its ballot screen on March 1, after settling an antitrust complaint with the European Commission, and in a blog post, Quantcast says that March 1 was the last day IE handled a majority of Europe's web traffic. IE's share may have dropped as much as 5 per cent in the three weeks since

I consider the real reason for fall in the share of  Internet Explorer is EU meddling.

EU is trying to make Opera its first choice.

Maybe they may try to fund an European OS in the future.

Just an observation. Nothing much.

Hi YoKenny,

Why not Chrome, Chrome was the only browser still standing in the latest hacking contest, where IE8 was being exploited by a Dutch hacker and  ASLR+DEP security were succesfully circumvented.
Wrapping up for the day. Chrome remains untested and therefore the only browser left standing. http://www.j.mp/pwn2own #pwn2own

So if you want a secure browser in these days, you have to start with a browser that is being developed from scratch, so a new concept and not building on onto an old swiss cheese build, at least the browser should have a good sandbox, vm, and separate processes,
making it so much harder to hack,
