Firefox D-day: Fight the power

Help Mozilla break the Guiness record for downloads in a day by shipping the Firefox 3.0 browser to your hard drive pronto. Firefox 3.0 went live today, Download Day, and as of this writing there were almost 1.4 million downloads -- including 37 in Iraq and 52,832 in Poland! At the moment Poland is beating Canada. For the uninitiated, Firefox is the free, open-source, widely praised alternative to Microsoft's Internet Explorer. Click here to download Firefox 3.0.

Update: Mozilla's servers seem to be having problems. Maybe you should help them break the (lesser known) record for most downloads the second day after launch.
