IE/Mac is... special. Top issues:

-- Can't deal with embedded "file://" content. Put it on a server and
all's fine. (Rephrased: It's hard to test pages from your local drives.)

-- Can't tell JavaScript its multimedia capabilities... no CreateObject()
test, no navigator.plugins array. (For this reason Aftershock feeds IE/Mac
GIF, eg.)

-- Many small differences from other browsers... doesn't like VBScript,
DHTML is different, other things.

I understand that a new version is on its way, and I hope that this acts
more like the other Microsoft and Netscape browsers.
