Mozilla is celebrating the fifth anniversary of Firefox 1.0, released 9 November, 2004. The project began as a fresh start intended to be leaner and faster.

While the official Mozilla effort still was working on the unified browser and email software package dating back to the Netscape era, Dave Hyatt and Blake Ross began work on a simplified browser initially called Phoenix. This is the logo for Phoenix 0.1, the first milestone of the browser. It was released in September 2002, but the name triggered a trademark infringement challenge from Phoenix Technologies.
