Yeah, plus mshtml.dll* is used by Outlook, Outlook Express, Office, Windows Help and probably a lot more.
Ever wonder why an IE vuln nearly always applies to Outlook etc as well?
I can even remember editing .htt files for to determine the display of directories back in Win98 and thinking "WTF? Javascript and HTML?"

Scary stuff, I prefer my browser to be "sandboxed" like Java and Gecko are.

* The rendering "engine" behind IE.
