its users the world over to update their browsers by downloading the
latest version namely Firefox 3. And the response was so massive on the
D-Day that, there was an outage at the Mozilla data center for several
hours. Once the servers were back online, the downloading continued and Firefox set the world record well within the 24 hours.
