Ashar, what people should use and what they do use are

I'd like to add that, IMO, this is because people are largely unaware

It is all well and good to be in favour of using Firefox and, I use
Firefox with pleasure HOWEVER, when used with texts in Farsi, and Arabic
IE is to be preferred, it allows me to upload soundfiles with a name
consisting of mixed alphabetic and arabic text. When reading a Farsi
text, the default size of texts is such that you can read the characters
with IE while they are almost unreadable because of their small size
with Firefox. Add to that this, the pesky upload symbol that makes the
first character unreadable and I must say that the case for IE is
overwhelming in favour.
Just saying that Firefox is better is plain stupid when the argument IS
that it does underperform. Saying that this "download figure" can be
fixed is nice but it does not help the case for Firefox until it is
fixed. So I am fully aware why there is a such a strong case for IE and
against Firefox when used with Farsi and propably Urdu, Arabic and Hebrew.
