Mozilla says the 75% users who download Firefox are not actually using

The October 6 news, Mozilla said, although Mozilla Firefox browser downloads to tens of millions of people, but 75% of the download has never used this browser. The situation was disappointing. So Mozilla has launched a contest to get people to come up with a way to solve the problem.

This is a very good move. However, it is surprising why millions of of people don't bother to download Firefox in the basement and put it there without using it. Most existing Firefox browsers are upgraded to a new version of Firefox, or use the 3.0 version of the Firefox browser. As a result, existing users seem to like the Firefox browser and insist on using the software, so that the global market share of Firefox browser reached about 20%.

But why do so many people (and perhaps new users) download Firefox and put it on the shelf? This matter is really puzzling.

Mozilla CEO John Lilly explains that perhaps the actual situation is not three-fourths of the download is not used. That's what our numbers are showing. Perhaps this is because some downloads are not completed, once again, or a user is converted from an old computer to a new computer (our statistics in this case is to add a new user, lose an old user, but increase the amount of download). However, it is hard to find out how the software is going to be available after one months of downloading. We really can't find the data. Can you see this data?
