Over 8 million — way to go!

· Firefox

Awesome job!  I am truly impressed by everyone’s hard work.  We exceeded 8 million downloads in our 24 hour period.  We’ll need to be patient as our judges and Guinness World Records validate our record attempt.  We’ll keep our map up and tracking downloads on Spread Firefox, but our judges will be reviewing the time period from 11:16 a.m. PDT on June 17th to 11:16 a.m. PDT on June 18th.
