Regarding to chart many people still hasnt change or dosent have understanding of browser safety security along knowlodge of available browsers on the internet because almost you can download and use many browsers now with Microsoft PC or laptops and Browser choice makes life more easy even because you dont need to search for available browsers however most popular ones is IE9, Google Chrome, Safari, Opera and many others.

If you have old version of browsers this will effect security and same time you will not be able to see many websites in best options and this can cause trouble rendering pages properly, and often widgets just don’t work.

Microsoft says it is “committed to reducing IE6 share as quickly as possible”, with the ultimate aim of reducing the market share of IE6 to less than 1% from the 12% it is now. The UK is on its way, with just 3.5% of the UK using IE6. It’s entertaining to see that IE6 users have been branded charity cases, with Microsoft referring to them as a “cause”.

Microsoft website says "10 years ago a browser was born. Its name was Internet Explorer 6. Now that we’re in 2011, in an era of modern web standards, it’s time to say goodbye. This website is dedicated to watching Internet Explorer 6 usage drop to less than 1% worldwide, so more websites can choose to drop support for Internet Explorer 6, saving hours of work for web developers."
