    Default One billion Firefox downloads

    On Friday (31 July 2009) Mozilla Firefox was downloaded for the one billionth time since its initial v1.0 release in 2004.

    It's still my favorite browser!

    Its supposedly the only application to be downloaded 1 billion times. I don't see any other close competitor for now except maybe AVG Free and a few others. Firefox also has the record for the most number of downloads in a single day.

    According to this report FF has 22.47% of the market. With one billion downloads you would think that they would have a larger share of the market.

    Cool stats.. Firefox deserves it because it truly is a great browser.. I just updated my MF to 3.5.2 and it's really fast.. Works very well for me.. Chrome is also a good browser.. Fast and easy to use.. I think chrome would also be downloaded for such number of times..

    I must have downloaded it at least 3 or 4 times myself.
    I think most other people have done the same.

    yeah,firefox is pretty good.I have been using it all the time.It's easy to install some tools and it's also so stable.
    What's more,it can resume conveniently in some accidental cases.That's really my favorite.

    I'm happy to ear it even i don't like firefox or use it.

    But it higher the standard for all others browser and the website, forcing others browser like Internet Explorer to get better.

    I cannot imaging my net surfing without mozilla.. undoubtedly it is the best of all the broswers because of all the plugins.

    Keep it up Mozilla...
