Microsoft shiped a dll with IE4 (msxml.dll), which implemented a library
which was called "Microsoft XML 1.0", i.e. that was the helpstring in the
IDL which defined the libraries interface. Also the version of the library
interface was 1.0, which was also defined in the IDL. IE5 includes an newer
version which has updated the version to 2.0. The product mentioned below
is refering to that version number. The name conflict/confusion is
unfortunate. Version 2.0 of msxml.dll implements version 1.0 of the W3C's
XML Specification.

Fwiw, the Microsoft Press website (http://mspress.microsoft.com) apparently
has no mention of the book. Guess this will have to be one more piece of
the conspiracy puzzle!
