IE7 should begin to increase its share fairly soon. Windows XP will be
getting Service Pack 3 in the next few months, and that will happily install
IE7 on a lot more machines than would ever get it if people were left to
install it separately. While not all XP users will add the SP, a lot will,
which should help with the reduction of IE6's presence. We can then hope for
a bit more word of mouth to spread the news further...
