Everyone uses a different browser these days. The most popular options are Firefox, Safari, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer, which make up close to 98% of the internet market share of browsers, with IE dominating the market.

When building a website it’s important for all designers to make sure their website is usable across all major media, whether its a popular browsers, mobile devices, or any other web browsing devices. However hours of valuable time is wasted debugging IE6, it’s complete lack of web standards support is a royal pain in the arse.

Statistics below were taken from W3Schools. Another useful resource is the Wiki
