MSN AdCenter to Support Firefox

Email This Entry

Posted by Adam Viener

As much as Microsoft would like to keep their customers using Internet Explorer, they have succumbed to the pressure to support Firefox, a browser owned by competitor Google, that is growing in popularity due to its speed and plug-in support. This could be a new trend for Microsoft, perhaps in their struggle to win the search war, they will neglect the browser war and assume they have already won.

On that note, I heard that Microsoft was thinking about force pushing an upgrade that would upgrade IE users to the latest version 7 along with their standard "Critical Updates" that some people have their computers set to install automatically.

Interesting times...

Adam,

I thought Mozilla owned Firefox (not Google).

From their website - About Mozilla Corporation:
Formed on August 3, 2005, Mozilla Corporation oversees the development and distribution of Mozilla technologies and products, including the popular and award-winning Firefox Web browser and Thunderbird email client. Mozilla Corporation relies on the talents of a core group of employees, as well as a vast community of worldwide contributors, to build and deliver great, user-friendly products.

Mozilla Corporation is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation. Established in July, 2003, the Mozilla Foundation is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote choice and innovation on the Internet. The Foundation provides organizational, legal, and financial support for the Mozilla open source software project, and governs the actions of Mozilla Corporation.
