I have three PC's and I downloaded it 4 times, I didn't store the install files. Four times because I messed up the config and had it reinstalled/download again.

I am maintaining a personal webserver and here are the stats:
Firefox - 34%
IE7 - 28%
IE6 - 16%
safari - 2%
opera -2%
Others - the remaining %

I think home users have a significant chunk on this numbers.

Yeah, some ppl might download again due to system crashed, or reinstalling system or upgrading operating system or etc.

I downloaded/preinstalled/uninstalled ff over 100 times, and now using safari, tomorow probably will download ff again :) I doubt 500 million is the actual number of users using ff

The market share figures are actually pretty good so they should be proud to show them off.
