Sounds like a good deal, right? All you have to do is get Firefox 3 during Download Day to help set the record for most software downloads in 24 hours - it’s that easy. We're not asking you to swallow a sword or to balance 30 spoons on your face, although that would be kind of awesome.

The official date for the launch of Firefox 3 is June 17, 2008. Join our community and this effort by pledging today.

If you want to follow the quest for the record, here's a link to a page that displays it more visibly than the download page.

I downloaded it and installed it on one computer. Trying to get all my extensions to work before I install it on my other machines.

I only had three addons that worked after downloading. Later that day, I got a popup message saying three more had updates, so I took care of those.

BTW, if you already have FF, just download FF3 over the old one.

Downloaded it at work and here at home. Both time were painless and my add ons worked before i went to bed.

Text Area Word Counter, Quitomzilla, coComment and Linkification don't work with FF3. I hope they're updated soon.

I downloaded it both at home and at work. I don't yet know if the record was made as hoped, but I did my part, too!
