Edit 2: I think they just forgot to remove that startup page for the final version. Downloading another setup from another souce does the same thing. Hmmm.

Edit 3: Firefox's pretty cool so far. I had to download the QuickDrag extension though. Heheh Super Drag and Drop <3. Memory usage is a tad higher than I expected. With 11 tabs (all TechArp forum pages), it's using 66.868 K. Maxthon 1.6.3 uses 44.940 K. I might have to tweak it
Yeah, I noticed the memory usage is still quite high, it doesn't bother me though. 4GB of RAM FTW

I don't understand why they want to release Firefox 3 first, then only start the record the following day...

Firefox 3 to Launch Today - Computing News - Digital Trends

Quote:
Firefox 3.0 is available for free; downloads via the Web (not FTP) will be counted toward the world record attempt. Firefox is currently the second most-popular browser on the planet, behind Microsoft's Internet Explorer.

Already exceed the 1.6mil expectation!

But they'll still need to check their log to get the official numbers. I download thrice on 3 different systems.

Firefox 3 exceeds 2.9 million downloads in first 8 hours

It appears that Mozilla has easily achieved its goal to set a new Guinness a world record for the most software downloads in 24 hours. Despite the fact that the download pages were virtually not reachable for several hours after the software was officially released at 2:16 PM EDT today (we actually found it posted on Mozilla’s FTP server at 1:31 PM EDT), lots of download requests apparently were successful.

Eight hours after the release of the software, the download counter stood at almost 2.92 million downloads. Mozilla’s own goal was to hit more than 1.6 million Firefox downloads within 24 hours to set a Guinness world record. Firefox 2 was downloaded about 1.6 million within one day after launch. Mozilla said that it will take about one week to review download logs and validate the record attempt.

So far, more than 1 million downloads came from the U.S., more than 100,000 from Brazil, Canada, Germany, Japan, Spain and the UK.
