As I say, it's not too fully featured! It is essentially exactly the same as what you get in IE. That includes right click menus, links opening in proper IE windows if they have a different target configured, and I would assume javascript popups, etc will continue to persist.

I'd suggest it's use is limited (for the moment) to application specific documentation / info (be that local files or web-based) where you can control (i.e. prevent) users from getting to the "outside world".

To be honest, I think that's as much usefulness as is needed though, as there's little point in building a Blitz Internet Browser using this control though, as you may as well just be using IE for your browser...although it would be nice to be able to set the style to prevent right click menus appearing, and maybe even stop scriptlets from running. But as it is simply the Microsoft IE control, there may not be much that Mark can do about that!
