Mozilla has the e-mail addresses of those who registered for the initial release of FF 3. The Guinness World Records is based on pre-registered database. Mozilla send you e-mail with link to FF3 download. This is how they claimed the world record. i_Xp/VistaUser

Oh, so that's what s/he meant. I didn't register with them. I actually still use Fx 2.0.0.16 because of several extensions that I use and I'm not crazy about the idea of the new "awesome bar". My preferred browser is actually SeaMonkey, tho'.

It's more a matter of intrigue rather than "Who knows what" or "what is best?", but who can lay claim to the best browser? What's best? Speed?... Security?... Ease of use?... Add on's? You could devise a browser that could serve breakfast in bed and 99% of the population wouldn't notice.... the shame of it all is that they go with what they know.... point and click. *Shrugs* I still like Opera

>>>"but you can't fix stupid."<<< Amen to that. The browser wars can be started here again if you wish, but the best arsenal against "nasties" is the brain. Like walking down the bad part of town after midnight, if you don't come packing heat, you're gonna get burned... >>>"Even better, let's reduce our online vulnerability by adopting a browser that we can navigate through via the command line interface..."<<< Already one out there (or at least one that's sans GUI). And it works pretty well: http://links.sourceforge.net/

This all sounds SOOOOOOOO familiar! Only the Names have been changed to protect the Guilty! LOL There is nothing to learn from someone who already agrees with you.

Micro$oft is still patching IE 6.0 / 7.0 it would be good if they would finally plug the holes that have plagued IE since version 5.0. Mozilla are fixing security bugs in Firefox in a timely fashion, which is more than can be said for Microsoft. IE 8.0 is coming... Snickersnortle! 8) Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity...

"Of course not, but to update FF month after month after month is ridiculous" You're updating I.E. more often than that, via Windows Update. It's of little importance, to me, which browser people consider to be the best or worst. What matters is which browser is more of a security threat. That'd be, .... I.E. Please let us know if you found someone's advice to be helpful.

Don't like the number 13 ... so I'll chip one in. Netscape is the best browser: it doesn't get updated hardly at all. In fact, it is now in total atrophy as a result .... take that IE & FF! Jabbering Idiots: Everywhere You Look!

IE is only a security threat if it is set up retardedly. You people obviously only listen to folklore; and mustn't know what a zone layer is. Medion MIM 2080 Toshiba T2130CT Macintosh Performa 450 All working wonderfully.
