Geoff,
Stat based on these figures from Macromedia:
Macromedia Flash by Version
March 2005 V. 2 V. 3 V. 4 V. 5 V. 6 * V. 7 *
US 98.3% 98.2% 98.1% 97.8% 96.8% 90.0%
Canada 98.8% 98.7% 98.7% 98.6% 97.0% 90.3%
Europe 99.3% 99.2% 99.2% 99.2% 97.7% 92.3%
Asia 97.1% 97.1% 96.8% 96.6% 93.9% 86.3%
Not an exactitude as far as the browser was concerned but you get the idea.
