Usually because different browsers interpret the page code differently. Or maybe javascript is off your IE?

Because the web developers didn't test properly the compatibility on both browsers, especially for the sites which use many scripts.

In fact more sites are operable in IE than FF, because many web developers who use Microsoft-based development tools like .NET often careless about FF.
