One reason I changed streaming service providers is becuase Live 365
does not work with Firefox, and I was catching HELL for that. I
just cannot UNDERSTAND why so many people HATE Internet
Explorer. WHAT is so BAD about Internet Explorer to make Live
365 broadcasters lose listeners, after Firefox no longer worked with
the Live 365 player Window?

IE is bad and disliked because it exposes your OS to more than any other
accepted browser does. It does not follow the WWW standards and will
render broken code/pages as it think the coder meant to code them, which
can be a threat.
Personally, the only thing I use IE for is bank sites when FireFox
doesn't work on them, and I use IE for Outlook Web Access to our
Exchange 2003/2007 servers since non-IE browsers don't play well with MS
Made Websites.
When we code we ensure that our sites work with IE6, IE7, FireFox and
Opera. We start with a reloaded image, so that the test station is
virgin, then test on each browser on 2000/XP/Vista and then were
possible on OS/x and Ubuntu and Fedora.

The upcoming IE8 will default to standards mode, meaning some sites may
not work if they are coded to be IE-specific!!

It still won't be able to display the most simplest standard confirming
websites either. For example:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>></TITLE></HEAD><BODY>
