'Eolas' patent (US Patent 5,838,906) was granted on November 17, 1998 
and covers technologies for the creation of a browser system that 
allowed for the embedding of small interactive programs, such as 
plug-ins, applets, scriptlets or ActiveX Controls, into online documents.'

Seems to me this would affect all browsers, but these guys won a .5 
billion $ suite against M$.
