Firefox Downloads Reach 75 Million

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the look-out-mcdonalds dept.

WindozeSux writes "Today Mozilla Firefox has reached its 75 millionth download. The Mozilla staff find this a morale booster since recent security vulnerabilities have slightly lowered the browser's growth rate. 'We're beefing up the management on the project. The project is still very healthy. We're seeing continued corporate interest and have a lot of large organizations that want to do deployments,' said Chris Hoffman."

    At my last contract we were not permitted FF, and had to use IE on the grounds that the IS team had not done a security review of FF, but they had of IE. The policy was simply 'better the devil you know'.

    I could see their point, up till I asked when they were going to do a review of FF - and they said they weren't.

    I think some people just like banging their head on the wall at work, for the feeling of pleasure they get when they stop and go home.

    Justin.
