Look at the Internet Explorer WebControls (I think at
gotdotnet). It contains a pure ASP.NET server control
tree view. Don't know if it will work on Netscape though -
 I think that getting a true cross browser control that's
as complex as a treeview for free is unlikely.

I have tested it on IE for MAC though and it works a
treat.

And yes it's free.
