What percentage of surfers use each browser?
What percentage of surfers use each browser? Does any one have latest stats from any source what-so-ever?

The ones I'm concerned with are IE, Netscape, and Mozilla at the moment.

MSIE is ~ 95%
Mozilla, Netscape, Firebird, Safari, Opera, KTHML, Amaya, Lynx, etc make up the other ~ 5%.

Not to proselytize, but if you're not already running Mozilla or Mozilla Firebird, download one of them today... you'll be glad you did.

I think it varies from site to site. This site probably gets a fair amount of Mozilla users b/c of its user base.

Stats for my site in it's busiest month so far this year:

IE6 ~65%
IE5.X ~9%
NS7.X ~1%
Mozilla ~10% (probably mostly me)
Unknown/Other ~15%

I just downed Mozilla today. My personal site is all messed up in it. I thought I had followed the standards pretty well too.

What's the diff with Firebird vs. the original?

Firebird is based off of mozilla, but they work on keeping it as minimalistic as possible. Soon the Mozilla team will switch to using firebird as the browser component of Mozilla.
