Most of my users are .fr people. My logs show more than 70% of them
as IE users. MS is clearly in the process of enjoying one more

What's more surprising is the enormous proportion of IE5 users over
IEx users. Seems to me that if we let them do every damn thing crosses
their dumb minds, we are in for long-time troubles ;(
