So essentially you prefer IE because everyone else uses it? |
I didn't know that FYI translated to that.

I'm not talking about OS. I'm talking about browsers. Based on the 2 million users that I have daily data on, who are browsing the internet - 91% use a version of IE.
Make sense? good. |

You missed my point - if 91% don't even use Windows, how could 91% use IE? The browser doesn't exist on any other OS.
Is your data collected solely (or primarily) from Windows users? Is the data collected from website statistics from a website that solely (or primarily) serves Windows/IE users?
Also, if it's relying on user-agent data, it might not be 100% accurate, because other browsers like Opera will often disguise themselves as IE to web sites. |

FYI: For the same group 95% uses WinOS, 3% MacOS, 2% other (Linux, BSD, SunOS, etc). |

Yes ! I can confirm that. Google used to show stats of OSes ppl use to access Google(they don't anymore), and something like 95% used Windows. |

Just to nit pick, there was/is a version available for Unix. At least I ran a copy of it on Solaris 8 (SPARC).
To keep on topic, adblock rules, and the weather extension to put the forecast in your status bar, it's fun. |

The tabbed browser preferences extension has this option:

I use the lite version just to get rid of stupid external links opening a new browser window. |
