Yep.

BBCode

It ads a right-click option for bold,underline,quote/image-tags,etc...

Considering there are roughly 6 1/2 billion people in the world, 18 million isnt even 1%, hell it isnt even 1/2 of a percent, congratulations, assholes. IF it was more like 30%, or 50%, then we could get excited.

Roughly 40% of the population have never used a computer, let alone know what one is.

A further 20% only use a PC for work, or they're satisfied using it to write documents, listen to music, play games etc...

Your idea of 30-50% is impossible.

And use it on your custom title too
I have concluded that less than 15% of the people visiting a forum is able to spell the word "lose".

I am a hardcore Firefox fan, so for me this is great news!
Now all there is left is for IE to be illegal to use in more countries than Finland, and we are all set to go

The more popular it gets, the more certain people will look for flaws in it and try to exploit them. So I'm glad Firefox is beginning to settle in the browserworld but on the other hand can a enormous popularity also destroy it.

True enough.

Firefox is open source, though, so while your typical evil hacker might have an easier time of finding an exploitable flaw, there are plenty more good hackers capable of spotting and fixing the same flaws. The turn around time on serious exploits should be a lot shorter than any closed source browser, which will limit potential damage.

As always, however, the end user is ultimately responsible for upgrading to the fixed version. The most serious flaw in any piece of software will always be a lazy or ignorant user.
