I had to agree with you.
You cannto compare Mozilla with IE+OE.
IE+OE works mainly on Window$ platform (Don't know much
about her solaris effort).

Mozilla must work both on Window$, linux and other platforms.
I guess Mozilla actually had its own meta-code for UI to
abstract the OS differences. The meta-code UI alone is a
big project, comparable to the Window$' or KDE GUI.
