Mozilla Firefox is a free browser developed by Mozilla Corporation and by thousands of open source enthusiasts all over the world. The development of Firefox started on the basis of the Mozilla engine, which was used in Netscape Navigator and was the response of the open source community to the dominating position of the insecure and full of bugs Internet Explorer from Microsoft.
Originally development was started by Dave Hyatt and Blake Ross but soon hundreds of developers worldwide joined them in their efforts to create a fast, reliable, and secure Web browser. The very first preliminary versions of FireFox appeared in September 2002 (under the name Phoenix). The name "Firefox" was adopted on February 9, 2004. Since then several major versions of Firefox have been released and the latest release is FireFox 1.5 (November 2005).
Although a relatively new browser, Firefox is quickly gaining popularity. It is estimated that as of November 2005, its global market share was 9.4%. The market share of Firefox in the USA is about 10%, in Europe it is about 20% and in particular countries (Finland for example) it has reached 40%! The tendency is clear - Firefox is quickly taking shares from other browsers (mainly Internet Explorer) and it can be expected that in a year or two it will be the most popular Web browser.
