Depends where you get your stats. According to Net Market Share, IE is still the majority desktop browser, with just under 60% usage: http://www.netmarketshare.com/
It's usually advisable for people get them from analytics tools on their own sites rather than looking at global stats. For example, IE stats from my Google Analytics account covering multiple different industries, company sizes, and types of sites and applications range from 6.78% to 13.19%, and I've seen similar numbers on every project I've worked on for at least 4 or 5 years.
