I thought Chrome would have grown a little more than this. Unfortunately until ActiveX dies away people are still going to be forced in to keeping IE for compatibility reasons.

Now Win 2000 is out of extended support (no more updates) some businesses might find themselves forced to upgrade. Unfortunately MS are continuing to support IE6 until XP is out of ES too, so web devs will have to put up with lingering IE6 users for a while yet.
