A major problem for adaption of FF or Chrome in the enterprise may be the fact that most IT users don't have the option to install new applications on their desktops themselves and have to use whatever the corporate standard is, which is unfortunately IE. I suspect this is primary reason why awful IE v6 still has high share as well. It is true that many critical enterprise web apps require ActiveX and hence need IE, but this problem may be easier to solve. Given that Chrome is open source, someone can the necessary IE components within Chrome to work with pages that require ActiveX. I think Netscape has done something like this combining FF with IE engine.
