Because I design (well, try to anyway) websites. And generally
my stats show on average, 75% of the people use IE. Doesn't matter
whether I like it or not. Code for the masses. I'm not familiar
with how Mozilla (on it's own) looks. Netscape may be secure, but
as a browser, it's often reek with bugs. Physically impossible to
code for every browser out there.
