The Firefox project was rewarded on Wednesday when Guinness World Records accepted that the 8,002,530 downloads of Firefox on 'Download Day' in June constituted a world record. Firefox is now officially in the record books for receiving the most downloads from a Web site with a 24-hour period.

Do they? Do that many people actually go to the Windows update web site daily? Remember that the record is most downloads from a *website*, so automatic updates and Vista users (who now have a non-web-based Windows update) don't count.
remember windows is installed 90% of the desktops i would say yes, huge amount of people like pc tech,corporate business admins,etc, there are always people installing windows more then firefox.
