“Just more than 10 years ago, Mozilla threw its open-source code into the public domain. Today, its browser — Firefox — is preparing to launch its third major release in hopes of continuing to eat away at Microsoft’s Internet Explorer.
Firefox already has more than 18 percent of the global market, according to Net Applications. With the release of Firefox 3, Mozilla could see a boost in downloads and market share. Microsoft’s next version of Internet Explorer won’t come to market until later this year.
Tomorrow, Mozilla will release Firefox 3. After more than 34 months of active development and the contributions of thousands of people, Firefox 3 will be downloadable free from the Mozilla Web site. Mozilla is promising this is the best browser — period.”

I’ve read that a PC running XP and using Firefox (2.0) is more secure than a PC running basic Vista.
Firefox rocks. It’s too bad it only has 18% of the market… it deserves more.

There are a few add-ons that I miss, but I have either found replacements or just dealt with not having them, either way, Firefox 3 is much much much faster,and i definitely enjoy the speed!
