Dr. Li Gong, co-chairman of the Chinese subsidiary of the Mozilla Corporation, has announced a deal with Chinese search engine Baidu to help propagate the Firefox browser in the Middle Kingdom.

Version 2.0.0.11 of Firefox was released on 30 November 2007.
Firefox is a cross-platform browser, providing support for various versions of Windows, Mac OSX and Linux. According to Mozilla COO John Lilly, FF had at least 125 million users as of November 2007.
