For a client server application, I'd like to display content with a web browser control with images without writing temporary files to the disk.

I've tried using mht files via documentstream and documenttext, but the web browser control isn't smart enough to recognize mht files.

I would use data URI images, however most computers this will be installed on use IE6 or 7.

Are there any other options for this?
