This wouldn't have happenned if they had supported FreeBSD instead of linux. All companies which support linux have been dying by the dozens.

If Mozilla supported COM like every other Windows application, it wouldn't be a problem.

As for patch checking without IE, search MS's site for "HFNetChk".
