I made the design and did the most work to make things run. I've written a few articles as well and I keep the blog up to date often. We got the hosting for free, the whole Finnish localization team is behind the site. It got pretty hot in the news after we opened it, even though the site wasn't ready (and still isn't, we do it on our free time after all).
Interesting tr333, I was under the impression Deer Park, ah, was Firefox
Merri: Cool, maybe we should start a list of all Firefox resources (in the first post perhaps)? The main ones, and then all the localised websites and forums.
I've converted about 6 users, who never looked back, with the exception of my father, who had barely gotten used to IE. The only time he uses it is when he clicks on it accidentally

Well I guess I can post my Fx buttons here agian. Most of them look like crap. I could make a small button to the right that has a link to this "tell us about it" thread.
I think I have converted 2 people directly and maybe a few others by just mentioning it. With 1 person, I was sitting on their computer and while they were in the other room I DLed Fx and installed it and when they came back I told them I had helped them more than they could imagine and I told them which I icon to click from then on out.
Fx is becoming kind of a cult phenomenon like Google. I think google is a little more evil, but they are both still awesome.
I've converted my whole Counter-Strike Source clan to use FireFox. The search function makes it easier to find match demos when trying to download them (on the page they are stored, for example, like this: 200509051805_auto_referee_de_dust2.dem, meaning 9th of may 2005 at 6:05pm).
You'll never get the respect of my...err...Microsoft's Internet Explorer.
I'm...er..we...uh...Microsoft is releasing a new version that will dominate for eternity...all browsers will bow down to me...uh...my...uh...Internet Explorer...and I will...uh...i...it will rule the universe....MUHAHAHAHAHA!!!....
Its kinda weird seeing someone Post and their post count is 0
Welcome to the forums gchick

She (or he?) has been around posting for a while, but only comes to CC. She seems to be somewhat of a mystery. I don't think she has ever started a thread either, but I could be wrong.
OK Rob. Tell us all about why IE is so much better than Fx All the extra spyware you can get from it that you just somehow can't in Firefox. All the hundreds of wonderful little security holes that the Mozilla developers forgot to include.

I had mine converted until he found out his internet banking website only worked in IE. Despite my efforts to convince him to change banks, he has now gone back to the dark side

easy.
use Fx for the main browser, and place a shortcut on the desktop for accessing the bank website through IE.

That'd be great I might make one in the style of Sfx's "Get Firefox" button, so the images ad looks a bit better. Then we can have 3 styles to choose from

Google is planning world domination with all its random products (Google Earth, Google Talk or Walk or whatever, etc.) I dunno if Mozilla are gonna bring out a chat client?

Depends on "a lot". Mostly I'm here when my brains haven't booted up or when they've ran out of all energy Plus I check topics with replies from UserCP when I have an idle moment.

mmm...nice logic....Your banks website only works in IE...
Spread the word! Firefox.
Is it just you running that site? I only found your name.
