...and you can't see Firefox gaining over IE6?  Again, those are overall numbers and I'm not even sure about the source. However, the most recent stats for a major technology site showed Firefox #1 at 51%, IE #2 at 39%. You will find the same trend on most technology sites, forums, etc... the FF/Op debate will never end but all I know is I've never designed a web app for Opera yet, only IE and FF, and the FF group is growing faster than any other |
the source ??
its W3c ( the guys who laid down the world wide web standards) , i dont think that these guys would be mocking up numbers or would they 
anyways,
Dont wanna start Flame war 
btw how are you doing ?? Still playin Quake pro ?

Wraith, that is simply IE functionality... when a page is done loading, it will jump to the front. It was a feature added in IE6 only iirc I'm afraid you're gonna have to live with that... ultra, all conclusive data/info must have some source, right? You can't magically pull these numbers out of the air, right? Every company has different methods of collecting, compiling and presenting data. Why do you think Comscore and Alexa stats are never the same, yet 9 out of 10 times their trends and conclusions are similar. Similarly, W3C is getting their numbers from users who visit their website... and while it's representative of what the actual usage is, it can never be accurate (they don't claim it is either, read their disclaimer). Even Alexa, Comscore, etc. don't claim their data is accurate, however, they publish the source of the data and calculation method so companies/individuals using the data can make their own assumptions. That said, all traffic stats scream one thing... the Firefox userbase is growing faster than others

It could be something to do with your video card settings. I know that Nvidia "nView" has a setting somewhere to make a window active when mouse rolls over it... even if this isn't it, it may be related.

Thats a option you can disable from the registry, I'll post it when I find that tweak, its to prevent IE from stealing focus.
Meanwhile you can try this option Prevent Windows apps from Stealing Focus | The Nimble Books Blog

There's no such thing as the best best browser, otherwise everyone would be using that.
And no amount of convincing could make anyone switch from their preferred browser (I was perfectly happy with IE6 until the media scare came along).
I prefer Opera because you don't need 6 plugins just to get some basic functionality, everything is just so well thought out
That being said - a browser is just that, not a way of life
