- Some Stats About Flash Player and Browsers
- Flash Player Version Penetration
Some interesting stats where published by Adobe:
- 99% of internet users do have Flash Player on their machine (98,8% from Google study)
- 80% of internet users do have Flash Player version 9.0.115 on their machines
- 99% of PC internet users do have Flash Player on their machine
This is great news. Almost any computer connected to the internet does have Flash Player installed and in a couple of months the 9.0.115 version will reach about 95%. Margins of error are around 5%.
From the data presented in Adobe’s study, Europe seems to be the last one and it seems that Europe is a more conservator ground than any other market.
From this study the usage of browsers is like this:
- 78.3% Internet Explorer (still the most used) = 1103 million
- 16.1% Firefox = 227 million
- 3.4% Safari = 48 million
- 0.8% Opera = 11 million
Another thing can be noticed: Internet Explorer is the most insecure browser and less upgraded.
