U.S. internet services and web hosting firm PSINet said the daily record of 74 million hits was for Monday June 12, when Germany played Romania and England took on Portugal.
The www.euro2000.org site served the month-long championships which were hosted by Belgium and the Netherlands and won by France on July 3.
Next week official statistics should show if the Wimbledon tennis website www.wimbledon.org has broken any records.
It held the record last year for visits per minute - peaking at more than 400,000 - but lost the crown later in the year when U.S. officials posted details of the Bill Clinton-Monica Lewinsky hearings on the Net.
PSINet said 74 percent of Euro 2000's hits were on English-language sites, compared with 8.1 percent for German and 7.8 percent for French.
