Do you mean IE 7 looks like firefox?

It doesn't seem like firefox at all.



Well, if you think about it, "Mozilla" (Firefox) is a descendant of
Netscape, which except for Mosaic was the first real web browswer.

All other programs that are web browsers look like the original Consider
the backend coding, bookmarks, navigator buttons and particularly
"cookies.":

"Together with John Giannandrea, Montulli wrote the initial Netscape cookie
specification the same year. Version 0.9beta of Mosaic Netscape, released on
October 13, 1994[23][24], supported cookies. The first actual use of cookies
(out of the labs) was made for checking whether visitors to the Netscape Web
site had already visited the site. Montulli applied for a patent for the
cookie technology in 1995; it was granted in 1998. Support for cookies was
integrated in Internet Explorer in version 2, released in October 1995
[one year after Netscape's amazing new app, IE already had an
amazingly-similar technology, but they didn't develop the cookie
technology.]

In terms of how that relates to Mozilla, Mozilla was not only the name of
Netscape's official mascot, it was the name of the original Netscape
sourcecode. AOL bought Netscape and destroyed the mascot and Netscape. AOL
still sucks, IE still rips off other web browsers (Firefox's tab bar, for
example) and ol' Mozilla still leads the industry.
