Well, I was referring to bug-fix and security updates, but yes, you make a good point about IE having to be more innovative (with wholesale version upgrades) once the real threat of competition showed its face...

Of course, nowadays there's more competition than just Firefox—Opera is still around (and actively supported), Google Chrome is making headway, and Apple's Safari is present (in the proprietary OS arena).

I find it wildly ironic that Apple seems to be pushing Safari for Windows whilst MS yanked IE for Mac. Go figure...
