> although I haven't achieved a successful combination which works... Recently I noticed that this issue was already identified and addressed in Microsoft's Knowledge Base item 934366 [1]. Although the proposed solution doesn't solve the doubts about MSHTML's security model and such, changing default value for "FEATURE_BLOCK_LMZ_SCRIPT" property will allow loading SVG/Flash/PDF files directly without experiencing the previously stated issue. Hope this helps, Helder Magalhães [1] http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934366
