Before everybody else adds the 2p worth I thought I would get in!

It is probably an intertia thing - IE is bundled with Windows and the vast majority of users cannot be bothered to download anything else.

It is also a preference thing - some people complain that Firefox is not like other Microsoft programmes so they prefer IE. Others prefer Firefox for the same reason!

Personally, I use Mozilla Suite which is a full package version of Firefox with email, newgroups and HTML composer because I prefer that.
