<\/a>ZScaler’s data largely lines up with reports from analysts and others in most technology categories it tracks. Its survey numbers show that search engines remain “a three-horse race,” as seen here, with Google leading at 57 percent, well ahead of Yahoo, with 18 percent of the search engine market. Microsoft’s Bing comes in at third with 10 percent, while Disney’s Go.com search engine, which is powered by Yahoo, is actually in fourth place, but has only 1.22 percent of the market, according to the survey.<\/p>\nAmong the top file-sharing and torrenting sites around the globe, there are some surprises in the ZScaler data, as seen below.

The third-largest domain, tb.in.th., is also controlled by Si@mBIT, and commanded about 13 percent of file-sharing traffic.\u00a0 Without a doubt, non-U.S. sites dominate the file-sharing scene.<\/p>\n In addition to becoming the most trusted brand in America<\/a>, Amazon is the top shopping site online, according to ZScaler’s data. However, there is healthy competition among shopping sites. ShopLocal.com is right behind Amazon in this survey’s results, and Macy’s and Shop.com are very competitive too.<\/p>\n There are quite a few other interesting data points in the ZScaler report, which is available online<\/a>.<\/p>\n Related content from GigaOM Pro (sub req’d):<\/strong><\/p>\n In Q4, Data Centers, Not the Cloud, Were the Big Story<\/a><\/p>\n Security services firm ZScaler is out with its “State of the Web” report for the fourth quarter of 2009, which presents a number of views — many of them graphical — of the top level domains in various tech categories most often sought out by web users.
