A few altBrowser questions

I've been using altBrowser for a few years now, and I have a few 
questions that I haven't been able to answer myself.  Would any of you 
happen to know how to resolve some of these issues?

AltBrowser 1.8, Revolution Studio 2.7.4, Windows XP Home Edition (SP2):


    1. Is there any way to stop IE from automatically issuing a "File 
Download" dialog box, and let Rev handle it (like on the Mac)?


    2. Is there any way to stop IE from automatically issuing a "Script 
Error" dialog box (even if it's set that way in the Internet Settings 
control panel)?


    3. Is there any way to stop IE from handling 
window.external.AddSearchProvider("http://www.example.com/Provider.xml") 
so I can do it instead?  It seems that IE disables this feature when 
it's called by the altBrowser external.


If no one has any ideas on these, then I'll post them to BugZilla.
