    Does anyone know what percentage of the browser market ie6 users make up, now in November 2008?

    I want to know if it is really worth supporting these users in my website or if I should concentrate on more modern browsers.

    I have a statistics center... The stats might not be super accurate but they seem to be close to most.

    It shows IE6 is used by ~32% of people that use IE, and going down while IE7 is going up :)

    Overall, as expected, Internet Explorer is the most popular browser with 79.5% [a slight decline compared with six months ago], followed by Firefox with 13.6% [a small increase], and then Safari with nearly 5%. Google Chrome usage is not significant yet but that’s unsurprising because it was only released in the middle of my six-month period.

    For Internet Explorer versions, the IE6 usage shows a decrease from 38.8% last time to 32.1% now. IE7 usage has increased from 61% to 67.6% [almost the same as the decline in IE6].

    According to NetApps, the most quoted stat site, IE6 was at 17% a couple months ago and falling rapidly.

    IE 6 is very old, so i guess its rate of fall will be avalanche breakdown.

    Ads placement is good. Now, you only have to do is to get more traffic for your site.
