FAQ
Q: Why are you counting downloads?
A: Because it's a metric, something we can measure. There are other metrics, downloads are one of them. Market share is another, and we're around 7-11% market share at some top sites.

Q: What's included in the download numbers?
A: We don't count updates through the the update mechanism for total downloads.
