Firefox 3: Download Day 2008

"Join us in our mission to set a Guinness World Record for the most software downloaded in 24 hours!"
http://www.spreadfirefox.com/en-US/worldrecord

So firefox/mozilla is trying to set a world record for the most software downloads in one 24 hour period. I'm going to download it anyway, so might as well be a part of this!

Anyone else heard of this or pledged?

That's a nice birthday gift for me. I'll be sure to get it!
(Yeah, my birthday's on the 17th!)
Firefox, a great software but... I'm a fervent partisan of Opera. x)

I used to use Firefox.

Then holb was like "lolopera" and I was forever changed. Sorry. :<
I'll probably download it just because I hate the annoying pop-ups that say "UPGRADE LOLOLOL" when you're using a version that's not the latest one.

Oh, and because I'm a Gaiafagette and the Gaia Toolbar doesn't work (to give me golds lol) on anything but Firefox (it might work on IE, but that's IE).
I'll pledge to this.

Also, isn't June 17 the release date of the Spore scam Creature Editor?

Okay I got it. Took them 40 minutes to get a single mirror updated. Their servers are getting slammed.
I can't get it yet, it seems. The latest downloads I'm seeing right now are for 2.0.0.14. Which I downloaded anyways since I was running 2.0.0.11.

Still waiting to see if they'll get a Firefox 3 download up, though. It might be they're being biased towards PCs and they don't have a Mac version up yet. Not likely, but still, you never know.

EDIT: Took about a half-hour, even getting the British English version (I'm an Anglophile; sue me), but I finally got it. Had to get the most updated version of FF2 first, it seems.
Hahaha! I couldn't even GET on the Mozilla Firefox homepage the first 6 tries. And when I finally got on and clicked the download link, the page wouldn't load. They're being hammered HARD.
Heh, I'm using Mozilla 3 as we speak. Although, it did take awhile for me to load it. But I just kinda figured it was my dial-up being it's slow self.

I just came back from lunch and started the download - 14KB/sec, OUCH!

(heh, I also got Opera 9.50 today :))

..isn't the point of it to set a Guiness Book record for most downloads?

I thought it was to have a piece of software without waving your eCock around the world.
