This important government site says that IE is required for login. I have not
experimented with the process, so I cannot confirm that IE is indeed required.

Site in URL is not here anymore. 

New site is http://www.uscis.gov/ and there are no incompatibilities with Firefox.

How about with other Gecko browsers (Camino, Seamonkey, etc)? It looked OK in a recent Camino trunk nightly to me but I have no idea what the original bug was trying to do (I didn't see a login anywhere).

Sadly this is still an issue. I wrote about this site a while back http://my.opera.com/miketaylr/blog/u-s-citizenship-and-immigration-services-change-of-address-bless-their-hearts

Broken in all modern browsers that support input@required. :/

It looks like the form at https://egov.uscis.gov/coa/addressChange.do was redesigned (and actually looks modern). No obvious brokenness, going to close as WFM. Please reopen if something finds otherwise.
