The last time I looked, "MSIE on Unix" only worked on non-Intel
hardware (after all, if you had an intel CPU, you should be running
Windows). I loaded it on a Sparc, and it was even flakier than
NetScape.

Sorry, I can't help with that one. If you can find an RFC # for the
protocol (not likely, given MS's behavior), that would be a great
start.
