Within weeks of each other, the most popular Open Source operating system and one of the most used web browsers for lay users have unveiled their latest avatars — and chances are they will attract millions of first-time users. On Tuesday, the third edition of Firefox will become available for free download. Such is the build-up and hype for this Open Source web browser that 1.6 million users have already pre-registered to get the software on Download Day, June 17 — and as of Saturday, 21,300 of them are based in India.
Mozilla, which promotes Firefox, hopes to create a Guinness World Record for the highest number of downloads on a single day. Don't miss out and download Firefox 3 from Shishya by clicking on the download banner displayed on the site.
Firefox has a reputation for blocking viruses and other malware more effectively than many competing offerings, and many users whose PCs or laptops run on proprietary systems still choose to browse with Firefox.
The browser has ironed out almost all its minor glitches during months as a beta and what is offered now is a robust version.
Going by the pre-release versions, Firefox 3 will be available in the Punjabi and Gujarati versions also.
