It's between Google Chrome and Firefox, although now Chrome is getting extremely popular I bet a lot of our forum members use it, I do.

But I'm still not sure so I'm going to say Firefox.

:Dwow, never expected it to be that close. Chrome is gradually eating into Firefox & IE market share, but I figured based on the stats Firefox would still lead by 5%-10% http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp

Exactly my situation.

I did go full Chrome for a while, but had to go back for all the bells/whistles I like with FF.

I'm confused on this one... is it which browser is most popular when visiting the aria site or which one is more popular globally?

Because I thought it was the latter and IE is still leading, although it has dropped to about 48% market share now, whilst firefox is stalling around 30% and chrome is creeping up and getting around 25% now.

If it's the first one, you might want to consider the phrasing of some of these questions as it's not the first time they've been a bit vague. :)

read the OP again mate:

now aria are pretty big here in the uk, but Google they aint ;)
it's obvious Robin was referring to their own data logs, not global :)

It depends hugely on where you look. In that W3schools link that was posted earlier IE had 29.7% to Firefox's 44.1%, but then a site on web design is less likely to attract users that write in all caps, have six web toolbars and yahoo as their homepage so they might be more interested in looking at alternative browsers.
