More than a few Web designers were puzzled when their carefully-designed pages that looked great in Explorer 5.5 fell completely apart when viewed with Explorer 6.
That's because Explorer 6 completely supports all the properties, values, and features defined in the CSS 1 specification.

 Internet Explorer 6 - WinPlanet Windows Software Reviews and Downloads   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
At first glance, the official release of Internet Explorer 6 doesn't seem to offer much in the way of improvements over its predecessor, IE5.
In fact, the only change immediately apparent is a revised look courtesy of Windows XP that adds new stylized buttons in the browser toolbar and more colorful menu background and toolbar areas, as well as the addition of the Personal Bar, a customizable sidebar pane that displays a variety of individual Explorer bars.
New Explorer bars that can be displayed in the Personal Bar include a Media bar with controls that allow you to play music and video files, and a Contacts bar that displays your Outlook Express and MSN Messenger contacts and also allows you to use Instant Messaging features from the browser window.

It's been almost a year since Netscape released version 6 of its browser, and Microsoft is only now shipping Internet Explorer 6.

Just about the only reason we can figure that it even deserves the full 6 version number is its release in conjunction with Windows XP.
