Bruce,

    Try looking at the Broadway extension to the X11 server for embedding
X11 client windows in a browser application.  It has a browser plugin to
host the embedding process.  To use this in IE takes some shim code which
may have come from Microsloth and therefore may no longer be available.
Email the list at www.XFree86.org.  (Search the archives first though to
avoid any flames.)
