MyIE2 now supports IE AND Gecko engine. I thought you might be interested. - http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail.php3?fid=1029407732
However they are not the first to offer both engines. One is Scope - http://www.farook.org/Downloads.htm and another is Networker - http://www.geocities.com/famelstudio/mozilla.htm
Well hey, it's a step up. The more Gecko is out there, the better.

True. My experience with this engine tells me that I will never come back to IE.
Can anyone explains what's the difference in using Gecko Engine (dunno what that is..only knows that;s what Mozilla is using)
The Gecko engine is IMO faster, though this is debatable.
But the big thing is that it is completely standards compliant. A webpage will always render the way it should.
I've been learning CSS/xhtml and I've really begun to realize this. I wrote a nice big website in xhtml strict, and it validated perfectly, but it didn't render right in IE, while it rendered perfectly in Mozilla.
EDIT:\\
Oh, Im a fool. It's also completely open source. That should be reason enough. GO FREEDOM!
Replacing IE engine with Gecko system-wide is actually very simple. The Gecko ActiveX Control must be compiled with the GUID exposed by the MS Web Browser control and then registered into the registry.The problem is that Gecko control doesn't expose all interfaces/methods/classes/properties of MS Web Control and thus many applications that are dependent on the MS Web Control would simply fail.
hey Pe7er nice tits (Y)
This is a very bad idea. Yes you could recompile the Mozilla control with the IE GUID, but you run the very real risk of horking your system in the process. The Mozilla control attempts to implement the same interfaces as IE but it is not 100% compatible. Throw in some ActiveX content, a bit of VBScript, and a strange schema or two and it would soon break. The moral is using some other controls GUID (where the U stands for UNIQUE) is a recipe for disaster.It's better to specifically patch any binary you want to try to use the Mozilla GUID. My page contains an IEPatcher program for this purpose and it does it safely.
EDIT:PS for everyone else: lynchknot quoted a post from mozillazine, and I quoted the reply on mozillazine to his quoted post.
so u guys r saying that using gecko in MyIE is NOT a good thing?
