If you check out Beta 2 of Internet Explorer 3.0, you'll find much more than your list of features that differentiate IE 3.0 from Netscape. And your glib gloss over of ActiveX means that you don't have a clue as to the significance of what's there.
Yikes! Please dont download MSIE 3.0b2. It has a huge bug that will affect a lot of your other programs. And not only that, but MS isnt going to fix it now, they will just have it fixed in the next release. What this means is no one can use MSIE 3.0 until the next release comes out. Which means we cant fool around with style sheets till then. :(
As for ActiveX, it is not as good as Java for one reason. Java is very safe, ActiveX is not.
