2006 appears to be a banner year for Google. It purchased the highly popular YouTube online video site in early October and saw its stock price dance with the $500 mark in November. Now according to ComScore Networks Inc., Google Inc. has slightly edged in front of Yahoo! Inc. to become the second most visited website for the month of November.
ComScore’s figures show that Google’s site traffic rose by 9.1% to 475.7 million visitors while Yahoo’s traffic rose just 5.2% bringing its tally to 475.3 million visitors. Microsoft still held on to a 26 million visitor advantage at 501.7 million.
News Corp.’s Fox Interactive Media sites also saw a significant increase in traffic thanks to the booming popularity of MySpace.com. Traffic for the company rose to a healthy 130.4 million visitors.
Ok.. Why MS is the most viewed..
i cant explain that, But they do definately not recount ppl 
Because then 500million would be less 
And then sites would set a so called “Bot” to klick the link every view seconds wich would boost their stats into the sky. And what mountain…. said, “Because when you install microsoft windows it automatically defaults to microsofts site” Thats just 1time each person…
“so why is microsoft #1? i would have thought google was.” all the people that hit that page cause of MS updates. Thats a shitload of ppl updating…tehe
Because when you install microsoft windows it automatically defaults to microsofts site. Since most people don’t know any better they leave it as their homepage. You also have to factor in that evertime you update internet explorer it seems to default to microsoft site for your homepage. Im also not sure but they might be counting windows update which would highly boost their traffic.
so why is microsoft #1? i would have thought google was.
