Is Firefox winning the browser war?

The recent news that Chrome had overtaken IE had me wondering about the future of Firefox. Surprising the browser has some good news on the marketshare front!

MS can try to redeem it but the damage has already been done, companies and home users are switching over to chrome and FF, either for speed or plug-ins.
In my personal opinion, Chrome usage will rise, Google will use it to push their google+ service and this will either succeed or push "purists" who prefer non-conformity or hate to be forced in to viewing the same adverts again and again for a service they don't want to use to swap to FF.
Regardless of the future war between FF and Chrome, Microsoft are too slow moving and get left behind, they are not innovative enough in the modern day ,although so.cl looks to be a promising addition to the social networks we already have and will hopefully improve the accuracy of searches made on bing through its use.
I and many others will continue to use Chrome, until Mozilla come up with some amazing new functionality, IE will drop users till it dies (lets face it, most of the users only use it because they either got it with the computer and don't know there are other browsers or because their corporation has had it for years and refuses to change. Don't forget that military organizations who had plugins made for IE6 which aren't forward compatible refuse to move, I have direct experience of asking one of my British special forces friends from high school why exactly he was browsing in IE6) and then the internet will rejoice, for microsofts clunky browser will no longer be dragging back W3C innovations with it's lack of inter-release support.
Anyway, that was extremely longwinded and biased.
LT;DR: IE is dying, long live Chrome and Firefox.
