I am not sure if somebody has mentioned it here already but Microsoft has managed to get 4.5 million parked domains from GoDaddy to be switched to Microsoft IIS servers. Which makes it look like 5% more sites are now using IIS.
In response Bruce Perens has launched a project called Open Source Parking http://opensourceparking.com/ which is free and where you can park your unused domains. The pages served will carry ads for Firefox and other Open Source software.
So if you have a parked domain you know what to do, you'll be helping Firefox at no cost to you whatsoever. If you are parking domains for a company or the company you work for, try to get this done there to.
