Firefox has had 10 million downloads so far from the official site.  That does not include copies distributed by individuals such as myself and those included in other projects such as the OpenCD and various Linux distirbutions, so the actual number of users should be somewhat higher.

My browsers:
Firefox on the #1 Machine.
Mozilla on #2 but is almost never used for browsing.
Mozilla on #3 Machine.

E-Mail - Thunderbird.

I mainly keep the Mozilla around to edit my local homepage with all my links and E-Mail addresses on it.

The Open CD is a useful location for open source software for windows machines.  Version 2 just released.  Includes Firefox and Thunderbird.

Firefox forever! I even got my father to use it.  ;)
All truth passes through three stages: First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being obvious.

I just checked the link in my post and those in my signature - they all worked for me.

No problem.  With the story just posted on Slashdot they may well be rather swamped with hits on the site today.

I added a Thunderbird link in my signature as well.  Just in case anyone is interested.

Firefox of course. I've been using it since 0.5. Thunderbird for email as well.
Only in America .....do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.

I tend to spread the word on things that I use like this.  To keep from hi-jacking this thread further I started a new one for useful and free software.  Link to thread.

Internet Explorer.

Take a look at what you could be seeing if you didn't use IE, compared to what IE displays.

  I can't really vote on this one as I have  IE 6 and Mozzilla Firefox .I use IE  for e-mail  and downloading and to give Firefox a break .I use Firefox as mostly a browser and find it is quicker for loading images and on gaming boards like these there are a lot of which IE is a little sluggish at but over all they are both good it just depends on what you are doing with them at the office we nothing but IE.
