The best way to ensure that the client will be able to run your XSLT IMHO is
to simply autoinstall the MSXML3 parser (or above). Download the cab version
from the msdn site and make
a page containing

<object id="MSXML3"
classid="clsid:f5078f19-c551-11d3-89b9-0000f81fe221"
codebase="msxml3.cab#version=8,00,7820,0"
type="application/x-oleobject"
STYLE="display: none">
</object>

and they'll get a question to install msxml3 if they don't already.
Preferable put this on a page for itself that goes to another "onload" so
users with it already installed will get redirected right away
