The Mozilla ActiveX Control uses the Gecko layout engine to deliver a fully programmable HTML and XML rendering control for ActiveX developers.

The API is similar to the Internet Explorer ActiveX control so it maintains a high degree of compatibility.

Gecko is the same engine that powers Mozilla, Mozilla Firefox

There's an old WinForms Gecko (Firefox) control somewhere, but the best non-IE .NET control you'll get is Awesomium, which is based on Chrome.
