    That's hilarious! Yes that should really get more traffic, I bet a lot of people would freak over it. Maybe even give people the option to have a spoof affiliate link for msfirefox on their myspace or whatever ;)

    Throw enough zeros onto the end of the check and anything is possible I reckon.

    It is possible that they are going to buy it some day or another but that would be a weak move from Microsoft.
    It' like Bill crying: 'we give up Mozilla! Our IE will never beat your Firefox' :D

    Whoever created this website is asking for trouble. They are using the microsoft logo and design. I bet this site will not last very long.

    Too bad for the guy who made it. The site looks like it took a lot of work! Do you think if he put some kind of semi-visible disclaimer that the site has no affiliation with microsoft or firefox it might work?

    a classic, awesome site, yes definately put it on digg, etc. Google has got to be developing their own browser. Have you guys checked out the labs section? Pretty cool stuff
