The most popular browser on Windows
… More EditMozilla Firefox is a free and open source web browser descended from the Mozilla Application Suite, managed by the Mozilla Corporation. Firefox had 24.07% of the recorded usage share of web browsers as of October 2009, making it the second-most popular browser worldwide, after Internet Explorer, which is the factory default browser on all Windows computers.
In 5 months, Firefox has gathered steam and now owns more than 25% of usage share of web browsers closing the gap between it and IE.
To display web pages, Firefox uses the Gecko layout engine, which implements some current web standards plus a few features which are intended to anticipate likely additions to the standards.
Firefox includes tabbed browsing, a spell checker, incremental find, live bookmarking, a download manager, and an integrated search system that uses the user's desired search engine. Functions can be added through add-ons created by third-party developers, the most popular of which include Adblock Plus, Video DownloadHelper, NoScript, Personas, FlashGot, and Greasemonkey, along with many others.
Firefox runs on various versions of Microsoft Windows (version 3.5 supports Windows Vista and XP; although not officially supported as of November 2009, Firefox is compatible with Windows 7), Mac OS X (10.4 or later officially supported), most Linux distributions, and many other Unix-like operating systems.
Its current stable release branch is version 3.5, first released on June 30th, 2009. Firefox's source code is free software, released under a tri-license of GPL/LGPL/MPL.

Firefox is absolutely amazing, add-ons with it make it even better. It blows away all other browsers
love firefox the only browser that i will ever use
spread the word this awesome
Most customizable browser around, but it seems like the OS X version gets the short end of the stick. Poor Personas implementation in the new 3.6 beta 4 with messed up tab bar. Gets really sluggish in comparison to Windows version.
dá se přispůsobit tomu co potřebuji
Very low initialization, eats a lot of ram, but the extensions are the best.
it starts a bit faster than my w7 and eats a lot of ram, but this is best browser for windows.
It is sometimes high on memory, depending on addons, but is the best browser out there.
I am very interested to see how this goes!
Best browser ever!
Love it
