Chrome seems to be steadily climbing month on month, Firefox is becalmed in the doldrums while IE is still way ahead of all of them...

I was half asleep this morning, windows was doing some automatic updates on my laptop, it asked me some questions which I answered as best I could in my hazy state - and now I've got IE8!! Oh Man - I really hadn't planned on that, I hope life isn't gonna get terribly difficult for me now, MS only knows!
