Update: Nine Million Firefox Downloads

The latest Mozilla tally shows a total of just over nine million downloads of the new Firefox 3 program within its first 24 hours of release.

Mozilla had only hoped to hit five to seven million to get into the Guinness Book of World Records for most downloads of a single program in one day. Guinness is now reviewing the data, according to Mozilla, and should have a final answer within a few days.
