As the browser's first anniversary approaches this November, Firefox adoption numbers have exceeded expectations with more than 100 million downloads since Firefox's introduction in 2004. Firefox's download success is a direct result of the collaborative efforts of thousands of contributors worldwide, to develop and fine-tuning the Firefox browser.

Asa Dotzler, liaison for the Spread Firefox community explained, "Our community of more than 100,000 Firefox developers, testers, and grassroots marketers, is rejuvenating Web browsing, which is why millions of new users make the jump to Firefox every week. Spread Firefox members look forward to the next 100 million downloads as they mobilize for the exciting new release of Firefox 1.5."
