Nielsen software doesn't measure Firefox

On: Nielsen Report Says Internet Usage Flattening

I am a Nielsen//Netratings panelist. Their measurement tool is a Java application called Insight that runs on Windows startup. It runs as a http proxy a la Achilles, and edits IE and Netscape configs to make the browser go through the proxy. It hasn't detected Firefox, so it can't see most of my activity.
