About Firefox
(From Wikipedia)

Mozilla Firefox is a graphical web browser developed by the Mozilla Corporation & a large community of external contributors. Firefox, officially abbreviated as Fx or fx & commonly abbreviated FF, started as a fork of the Navigator browser component of the Mozilla Application Suite. Firefox has replaced the Mozilla Suite as the flagship product of the Mozilla project, under the direction of the Mozilla Foundation.

Mozilla Firefox is a cross-platform browser, providing support for various versions of Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. However, the source code has been unofficially ported to other operating systems, including FreeBSD, OS/2, Solaris, SkyOS, BeOS and more recently, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition.

Firefox's source code is freely available under the terms of the Mozilla tri-license as free and open source software. The current stable release of Firefox is version 2.0.0.3, released on March 20, 2007.

About this installation

This is a slightly customized installation that installs Firefox & three extensions for it. These extensions are Tab Mix Plus, IE Tab, & SiteAdvisor. Click on their names for more information about what they do. This is only for 32 bit versions of Windows XP or 2000.

NOTE: If your upgrading or installing over the top, your bookmarks will not be lost but your current extensions will be.
