One week out of the box, and the people at Mozilla are smiling about their new baby. And well they might, since Firefox 3 has been downloaded 19.6 million times during that period.
The first day, of course, saw a record-setting eight million downloads (although its official world record status has yet to be confirmed).
Now that the dust has cleared a little, Mozilla have been able to look more closely at who downloaded the browser. The majority, 5.4 million of the downloads, came from the US, followed by Germany with 1.7 million, Japan with a million, and the UK with a little over 800,000 downloads.
Mozilla told Vnunet that now Firefox 3 is available, its market share has risen from 18.41% in May to 19.17% this month, according to data by Net Applications.
