"As well as a marked decrease in total sites this month of 22.14 million (-15.8%), Microsoft also suffered in other metrics this month. The number of domains served using Microsoft software dropped by 8.27 million (-18.4%), and 19,000 fewer web-facing computers (-1.2%) are running Microsoft web servers. Microsoft also lost 633,000 active sites (-7.3%)," says Netcraft today (published 4 hours ago in the monthly report)

Summary: Microsoft has been reduced to very few Web servers and only about 4% of the market; as we noted earlier this month, this lock-down as a whole has been a disaster for Windows and IIS; it might not be long before IIS is altogether discontinued
