| | Hi guys,
[/tab]Our beloved FireFox Browser hit the 50 million-th download mark today. We were all present at their irc room on irc.mozilla.org channel #spreadfirefox and had a gala party with a whole bunch of people from around the world - taking part in the countdown.
[tab]I managed to catch a snapshot of their live counter at 50 million and 1 downloads - here's the Snapshot:
This was by far one of the most exciting online events I took part in recently...
50 million Cheers to FireFox  |

That's awesome news! I know I have both on my PC, but I've been using Firefox most of the time now and I think it's great. I have ADSL, but still it seems that some pages take a while to load with IE. Not so with loading the same page with Firefox! A hearty congratulations to the folks at Mozilla!

Its nice to see a browser that hit the market last year take such a popular rating. I downloaded Firefox when it first came out, and I am really pleased with it, mainly because of the tabbed browsing, and it being ore secre because it blocks harmful ActiveX applications. I am really pleased with Firefox!

I can only hope that some day Firefox will take the lead. I would give anything to see the looks on he faces of the guys from the Internet Explorer department..

The Firefox threat will be eliminated this summer. Go ahead and delete FireFox from your computer. You're wasting space. Not that I wasn't once a user of Firefox.. when it was created. Yet, IE is used by over half of the population. Tabbed browsing, security patches, etc coming to IE soon. Don't waste your time coding for two browsers.

Firefox screwed up our Windows. Or our computer went and screwed itself up with the help of firefox. Anyway, we don't use firefox any more in Windows, but we use it on our linux. Happy birthday!

Yo man I am so happy for the firefox I don't have anything against internet explorer but nontheless it is nice to see more players in the field because you know that then and only then companies will try and work harder to improve their products. I have also downloaded it several times well almost every few months when I restart windows on one of teh computers. But if you think about it 50 million is not that much of number. when you check how many are there microsofts sold out then it seems fair small best regads

Firefox 3 Sucks - Time For Another Browser
(48) No seriously, I've been using Firefox since 0.x releases. I loved it. Every release, despite

default interface is ugly. And no Home button, really ??? (ps. I kno i can drag it back from the
bookmarks toolbar but still, its stupid). The address bar search thing. I liked the concept, but I
am so used to the old way, this actually distracts me, I don't want to search my history

it out considering i needed it anyways to test out my websites. I got the iFox Smooth skin also to

Firefox 2.0 Officially Launched!

are your opinions about the new IE, if you have tried it? Is it better than Opera or Firefox?
Personally, I think it is better than MSIE 6, and pretty much the same thing as FX, but I still miss
features that are integrated into Opera, such as a mail client, IRC client and mouse gestures. There
is also a major change when rendering web sites: The text is anti-aliased. Personall....
