Users are going to Chrome, not to IE.

Chrome has around 60% of the desktop browser market share. IE is
under 10% and declining. Times have changed.

I'm sorry to hear that.


Google ran what has proven to be an effective campaign to push Chrome,
on several fronts (including drive-by downloads).

I quite dislike Chrome, though I use it on one
of my computers because it seems to use slightly less resources than
my first choice, Firefox.


I used to use K-Meleon for this reason. Unfortunately the latest
stable release is nearly 3 years old.

I find Chrome to be more annoying and less
functional than most other browsers.


I have heaps of bookmarks, and I much prefer Firefox for this.

Not to mention the Google privacy
questions...


For this, look at one of the alternative Chromium builds such as
SRWare Iron.
