I Don't Use IE

Have you contributed time, money or code to the Mozilla project?

If not, keep your whining to your self and use something else.

If you have, have you submitted your problems to Bugzilla?

Mozilla isn't free. It's community supported. If you downloaded it, that means you.

Who said I was whining? Certainly not I. Some people just read what they want to read and ignore the rest, while preaching their gospel with canned posts.

What is wrong with just wanting to download a piece of software and have it work? Why should using a piece of software, free or otherwise, obligate you to submit a bug report to the developers?

Please don't tell me you are obligated to because it's a community project. Because it may very well be the case that the existance of the community project may mean that a commercial alternative was never developed.

It may be a nice thing to do to contribute back to the community but why are you obligated? I never read that in the GPL.
