The Firefox browser, developed by Mozilla, is today celebrating its fifth birthday, previewing what it is planning for the future.
The first version of the open source browser was released back on 9 November 2004 and is now currently running at version 3.5 with 3.6 due before Christmas.
Firefox has been increasing in popularity over the years and currently holds a market share of 24 per cent, equating to more than 330 million users.
It is still lagging behind Microsoft's dominating Internet Explorer browser but is holding off closer competition such as Google's Chrome or Safari.
The company has announced celebrations under the title of "Light the World" with the tag line: "Five years of Firefox That's a long time on the internet, so let's celebrate five years of working together to make the web better for everyone."
Mozilla also offered a sneak preview of its next project, making Firefox into a mobile browser.
