Firefox 4 Nears 6 Million Downloads as Browser Wars Heat Up
Mozilla Firefox 4 is off to a good start with nearly 6 million downloads about 24 hours after the new browser officially launched, according to a Mozilla site that tracks Firefox 4 downloads. The number puts to shame Microsoft's recent boast that Internet Explorer received 2.35 million downloads within its first day of availability.
Regardless of the initial download numbers, it's pretty clear the browser wars are becoming more intense as each browser maker tries to one-up the other, and it's not over yet. Firefox 4, IE9 and Chrome 10 may be available now, but there's more good stuff for browser fans in the coming months.
