OS Dir has the story that Mozilla Firefox 1.5 has already been downloaded more than 2 million times. It was released publicly on the 29th of this month (Tuesday afternoon) and today is Friday... not bad for just a few days. I suspect that the rate will slow now that all the folks that were watching for the release have got the new version downloaded.


I do still run into people that didn't know an alternative to Internet Explorer existed. It's nice to be able to offer a good free alternative browser as a possible solution to problems that are run into with Explorer.
