A couple of things;

1. Netscape 8 came out
2. Deer Park (The next version of Firefox) went into Alpha. Deer Park returns Netscape 5.0 by defualt.
3. IE 7 beta also was released.

Also where do they get these figures? The Live Demo page for Net Aplications (A golf shop) shows a 14% Firefox usage... much higher than the reported 8% or so. W3C Schools shows about 20% Firefox usage...
