Thanks Bruce. "Just five months after crossing the 50-million site threshold, our survey has topped 55 million sites for October 2004, receiving responses from 55,388,466 sites. That's a gain of 981K from the September survey, continuing the recent trend in which Internet growth has averaged roughly 1 million sites a month. It tracks the growth pattern seen during the expansion from 45 to 50 million sites, which also took just five months (December 2003 to May 2004). The first Netcraft survey in August 1995 found 18,957 hosts. The dominant operating system was Windows, with six of the top most reliable sites running on a Microsoft operating system, evenly split between Windows Server 2003 and Windows 2000."
