If you dont want any
IE4 stuff but you want the similar interfaces then ActiveDOM ( VCXML )
is probably your answer for now:

Thanks for clarifying. We have been hearing
loud and clear that people want a version of MSXML.DLL that does not depend on
any IE4 stuff. MSXML depends on IE4 because it uses IE's cool
multilanguage support (MLANG) and networking components (WININET,
URLMON).

Clarification on "Burnt by MSXML.DLL"
In a previous message, I wrote: >>We have been burnt with relying on MSXML.DLL.
To clarify, the "Pre-DOM" C++ XML Parser seems to work
fine.
However, this requires that our clients have a particular
version of IE installed on their machines. My company's tech support
staff are constantly getting calls about why something doesn't work.
Their problem is they don't have an MSXML.DLL on their system!
The answer is: "You have to have
IE4, SP1 installed." This seems to upset a lot of our corporate
clients, who have chosen Netscape as their browser, and they don't want to
have anybody installing newer versions of IE.
Hence, "burnt."
SIDE NOTE: In another project, I'm
now using the IE5 DOM and have found it very easy to use, especially with
the VC++ 6.0 #import feature of the DLL. My only complaint is that the error
messages returned are almost always
E_FAIL.
