Did you name your browser after this amazing 80s band?

I was looking through hard to find 80s acts and stumbled across this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qo6IipmN5Og

I am sure you get this question all the time. If you did indeed do so, good choice! The DiscoSocks edit of this song is pretty amazing too. Look it up if you get a chance!

Anyway, love your browser. Use it at work, home, and try to get everyone I know to give it a spin. We use the ESR version all the time at the office for those terrible old Java programs. Really hoping we can keep stuff secure, free, and wild on the internet so thank you for your part in spreading the word!

Thanks

Hi   !

Thank you so much for singing Firefox's praises   !!!

But no, that cool band is not what inspired Mozilla to name the browser,   see :

'Hope you'll enjoy using Firefox for many, many years to come   !!!
