Product Description:

Firefox is an award winning preview of next generation browsing technology from mozilla.org.

Firefox empowers you to accomplish your online activities faster, more safely and efficiently than any other browser, period. Built with Tab browsing, popup blocking and a number of other seamless innovations, Firefox stands out ahead.

CNET Editor's Review:
Though it's difficult to unseat Safari as the preferred browser of Mac users, Mozilla Firefox garners attention through its solid design and extra features, making it a worthy alternative. Even though Internet Explorer dominates the Web browser market, you might wonder why if you spend some time with Mozilla Firefox. This light and nimble Web wonder brought tabbed browsing into the mainstream (IE7 recently jumped on the bandwagon) and offers countless ways to customize it through extensions and themes.

Firefox ReviewSafari Is Better - Version: 2.0.0.14, 4/29/2008 04:54AM PST

Maybe Firefox is better for web design. It's definitely way better than Internet Exploder. But for everyday browsing for the average user, I prefer Safari, hands down. For me it's slow to load and a little slower browsing than Safari. It's main drawback is constant security updates. Every time there's an update, one or more plugins or addons become obsolete. It's just a pain. Autofill is incompat most of the time. I only use it when a some Windoz deal requires it.

I have been using Safari as my browser of choice for a long time. Recently i discovered Firefox works far better and actually think it works much better. I am going to start using that as my main browser. Good Job Firefox. Very nice job.

Developing websites with Mozilla Firefox makes a lot of fun. The way Firefox is handling html/css properties is very reliable and most of all logical.

Keep going folks! Your market share is growing steadily.

graphically & sincerely,
