There are hundreds of sites that are coded for IE...any site that uses IE-specific CSS styles is going to render badly in FireFox.
As for the argument that IE is better than Firefox, that's lame and stupid. Firefox has changed the way I browse, with tabbed browsing, amazing extensions, constant updates, and the fact that as Pete said, I can view that rare site in IE if I want.
I wish everyone was a HTML purist. The web would be a better place.
And FYI, while IE might be the dominant browser, I don't think many grannies and 15 year old rebelloious teenager girls will be coming to your site. In fact, I wrote a PHP stat monitor on one of my sites a while back, and 12% or something was IE hits. 75% was Firefox. You can't use those statistics and judge FF.
It would be interesting to put a small script on the index page of this site and see what happens.
