EWWWW!!!
It sounds like a Netscape for IE users, not long time Netscape users. I 
think I'll stick with my 7.0.
FF and Opera for windows let you just tell a web page you're using a 
different browser by changing the user agent string, not the rendering 
engine.
I've used that feature successfully in both on web pages that didn't 
display correctly the first time. [You must have IE to view this page 
properly ... BAH !!]
I really can't see any reason for Activex Scripts, other than to keep 
people chained to IE. Of course, I hate Flash too, because "Open In New 
Tab" won't work. ;-)
