Firefox 3 Download Day FAQ
guys do read on how to take part

How do I take part in the record?

It's simple. Just download Firefox 3 as soon as it is available, preferably from Download Day Headquaters. You'll get a customized certificate by downloading from Headquarters.

When will we find out if we’ve officially set the record?

This will take approximately a week after our attempt date. Our judges and Guinness World Records™ need to review our download logs and validate our record attempt.

What is Mozilla doing to make sure the record attempt is valid?

Mozilla will only count downloads that are fully and completely transmitted, not partial or complete updates. We will also discard duplicate downloads with the help of a cookie system. We will be logging our downloads using Apache and these logs will be made available for audit to Guinness World Records™, as well as two judges - Corey Shields and Paul Vixie.

What qualifies as an official download of Firefox?

A "download" is the transmission of the entire, fully functioning Firefox 3 -- not an update.

Do we have to reach a specific number of downloads in order to set the record?

This is the first record attempt of its kind so there is no set number. We'd really like to outdo the number of Firefox 2 downloads on its launch day, which was 1.6 million. Let's shoot for 5 million--the sky is the limit!

How do I download an official participant certificate?

A special form will be available on the Download Day Headquarters as soon as Firefox 3 launches and Download Day kicks off. Simply enter your name and select print for your very own certificate.

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/721406/+0#entry18027453

ehh... how come ar? then is FF3 released ady? or have to wait till 1am?

then just wait until 1am then

maybe just download the next day... it's a 24 hour event anyway.

i will download firefox sharp at 1am too haha

downloaded alread, but will download again 2molo for the record.

installed dl frm here
http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/721406/+0&#entry18027082

auto import from previous fox

btw this will not counted for download days so will dl again 1am later

Opera 9.5 was just released lol. And compared to RC3 that I tested, Opera still takes the crown as the best browser. Pity that not many ppl take notice of this browser tho
Jom, aku join ko. Kita emo kat tepi lol.

This also happen at slashdot last week. The post about D-day of firefox was the same day Opera 9.5 release.
Then the author edit the post and include about Opera 9.5. It was a good read thought. Hehee. http://tech.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/06/12/1425203

But I pledge with Firefox though ^__^
2mrw start dload. 1am already zzzzz T__T

the thing that bugging me abt opera is the download intergration.firefox is easy b'coz of addon "flashgot" that made easier to use.other than that 10/10. the widgets are oso kewl

my orbit intergrates seamlessly. Not everyone likes flashget anyways. But hey, this is not Opera vs FF thread lol

I think the file (Firefox 3 Installer) is already on their servers, but the Download Day 2008 event has yet to kick-off. So, you can start downloading, or, wait and
join the Guiness World Record event.

Imagine, web sites posting the final count of downloads in 24 hours, and in those numbers, you're one of them !!.

BTW, I still am going to continue using Internet Explorer 7.0, no further details will I say about this.

yeah but some files not dled with orbit..its just open with its dl man.

btw its flashgot addon for firefox

and i still using opera if its not resource hogging.
