This article is so dumb, it's amazing the author is brave enough to post it!
He's comparing ALL versions of Firefox to a single version of IE? That's hardly being objective. He should compare ALL versions of Firefox (24.07%) to ALL versions of IE (64.64%)... which tells everyone that Firefox can't even compete.
The only reason he posted this article is because he likes Firefox... his stats have been twisted so it is presenting Firefox in a better light.
Truth is, IE will always have a higher market share than the others... At least until Microsoft goes out of business... which won't happen any time soon.

The point though isn't about the share of all versions of ie, just 6. The point also isn't about how Firefox is the favorite son. The point is ie6 is the bane of the internet and the fact that a singular alternative browser like Firefox (regardless of which version the user is running) has overtaken ie6 FINALLY is a significant triumph. So including ie7 and 8 is irrelevant because both of those do a significantly better job than ie6. Once ie6 is totally obsolete, THEN the other details become relevant.
