Browser wars

It would appear that Google Chrome is waging a very targeted war. A war to increase their market share. A war that only seems to be targeting one rival. Internet Explorer.

Today I decided to check the other browsers (being on the constant search for innovation I have all of the 'big 4' installed. Firefox, Safari, Opera and IE. I went to Google's home page.
