Firefox Downloads Reach 75 Million

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."

    This was attempting to stop this guy from spamming and sending his spyware here (does it every day). Somebody is now killing others for no reasons.

    I suppose that if there is no God when I die and that my belief in Him was for naught, that I can at least take satisfaction in how I lived my life trying to do my best to be patient and kind to other people and generally doing my best to live rightly.

  8. Re:Firefox Download Counters by dangitman · · Score: 1, Offtopic
    The Spread firefox community has helped to develop firefox download counters which can track the exact number of downloads in real time.

    What an unbelievable waste of time. Oh wait, I'm posting on Slashdot. Never mind. Continue destroying brains with your download counters. I'll destroy my own with Tequila and ranting.
