SAN DIEGO, CA - Oct. 17, 2001) WebSideStory, Inc. (www.websidestory.com),
the world's leading provider of outsourced e-business intelligence services,
today reported the four countries with the largest Netscape user
populations. As of October 15, 2001, Germany heads the list with a browser
usage share of 20.26 percent, compared to the global average of 13.17
percent, according to WebSideStory's StatMarket (www.statmarket.com), a Web
site design and software optimization service and a leading source for data
on global Internet user trends. StatMarket publishes information gathered
from more than 50 million Internet users a day to more than 125,000 sites
worldwide using WebSideStory's HitBox� Enterprise (www.hitboxenterprise.com)
and other HitBox e-business intelligence services. Switzerland was next on
the list with 18.77 percent, followed by Canada (17.25 percent), and the
United States (15.79 percent), StatMarket reported. Browser usage share is
the percentage of daily Internet users worldwide that access the Internet
through a particular browser.
"Compared with the global average of Netscape users, these countries are a
very strong market for Netscape," said Geoff Johnston, vice president of
product marketing for StatMarket. "In some countries, the percentage of
Netscape users is so small that there is virtually no market share to
support. The data makes it very clear that when it comes to making browser
support decisions internationally, one size does not fit all."

As of October 15, 2001:

      Germany 20.26 %

      Switzerland 18.77 %
