Firefox Hits 100 Million Mark

The Mozilla Foundation's Firefox browser has reached 100 million downloads only five months after hitting the 50 million mark and just a few weeks prior to the one-year anniversary of its formal release.

While the browser has seen download rates spike over the past year, the adoption of the browser mainly has been a steady growth path, the foundation noted. At this point, between 200,000 and 300,000 downloads occur per day.

At this point, many enterprise I.T. departments are looking at Firefox as a viable alternative to Internet Explorer.

You can download firefox (very easy to do) by going to their website at www.mozilla.com
