I've observed this same problem from both Mozilla (1.4-1.7) and Firefox (0.6-0.9) on Windows (2000 Pro and XP Home). IE and Opera consistently use monofont when in [code] tags, but Mozilla and Firefox sometimes revert to proportional font. I investigated a bit in the past, and the problem seemed to be due to the fact that in some situations, UBB generates invalid HTML for code tags. It tries to stretch a <font> tag across multiple blocks (e.g. paragraphs). I think. Don't really remember right now; I know I was going cross-eyed trying to sort ot all out, because sometimes the HTML is OK, and sometimes it's not. In the case of invalid HTML, Opera and IE interpret it one way, and Mozilla and Firefox interpret it another. That's my guess at least.
