This is a low blow. IE fall guilty of far more mistakes, why do you not hear Opera pick at them is they care so much?

If the figures are slightly wrong, it is not by much. FF is without a doubt at least 50+ million ahead regardless.

It has been download 66 million, so many could say there could easily be 80+ million considering many download once, and use it to install on many comps.

To say Mozilla is funded and Opera is not is scandalous. IE is funded way more, why don't they attack them? In any case, Opera are funded, and in a worser way. Commercially by adverts forced on users on the free version, and money gained for the non advert one.
