The US Copyright Office is proposing to require that people filing electronics-only registration forms must use Internet Explorer. They have put out a request for comments asking if this will cause difficulties or create a hardship for people.
If you are a Macintosh user (IE is no longer supported on the Mac), or if you simply object to the endorsement of the Microsoft monopoly, please send an original paper statement and five copies to the address on this link by snailmail before Aug. 22.

I understand requiring a particular method of filing, but it is unacceptable to require that people use one particular piece of software. It is not appropriate for the Copyright Office to endorse one company's product to the detriment of others.
