Also, Google allows web site publishers to put links on their pages to download Firefox, and for every person you get to install Firefox from that link they give you $1.00. This may not seem like much but I would definitely consider it a sign of support. -Ryan I would say that by putting a link on their homepage to download Firefox is a good representation of supporting a company, especially since only their own products have been on the homepage.

I know Google gave some money to the Firefox project, but it's a web page - and a deceptively simple one, at that. It should work on any browser from lynx through mosaic and straight on up.
