Is it hot in here? The Browser debate.

So there has been much talk recently about Browsers. What has re-sparked the debate is the recent attack on Google by Chinese Hackers . This led to an outcry over the VERY outdated Internet Explorer 6 that a large percentage(20.07%) of people are still using.

Still, it will most likely be another couple of years before most people are enlightened enough to move away from the darker side of the internet.
