I don't know specifically about MS's site, but in general over the last
3+ years I wrote web applications which tried to be as standard-compliant
as possible and generally Mozilla was much much slower than IE when it
came down to DOM manipulation via JavaScript. Mozilla 1.4.2 is supposed to
speed this up but as far as I'm aware it's still not up to par.

BTW - does anyone else get Mozilla-Firebird stuck so often? It shows
Walla better than Konqi and used to be much faster than Mozilla, but now
it gets stuck on me pretty constantly.  I'm using the version available for
Debian unstable.
