These are all valid from IE v. 4:

Properties

AddressBar, Application, Busy, Container, Document, FullName, FullScreen,
Height, HWND, Left, LocationName, LocationURL, MenuBar, Name, Offline,
Parent, Path, ReadyState, RegisterAsBrowser, RegisterAsDropTarget,
Resizable, Silent, StatusBar, StatusText, TheaterMode, ToolBar, Top,
TopLevelContainer, Type, Visible, Width

Methods

ClientToWindow, ExecWB, GetProperty, GoBack, GoForward, GoHome, GoSearch,
Navigate, Navigate2, PutProperty, QueryStatusWB, Quit, Refresh, Refresh2,
ShowBrowserBar, Stop

Events

BeforeNavigate2, CommandStateChange, DocumentComplete, DownloadBegin,
DownloadComplete, NavigateComplete2, NewWindow2, OnFullScreen, OnMenuBar,
OnQuit, OnStatusBar, OnTheaterMode, OnToolBar, OnVisible, ProgressChange,
PropertyChange, StatusTextChange, TitleChange

   You probably won't need to use many of those. To find out
about the ones you don't know I think the only option is
MSDN or sample scripts. MSDN is available on CD with MS
programming software, which allows it to be loaded locally
like one giant help file. I don't know what it costs to order MSDN
CDs alone.
  MSDN online is unfortunately slow to load and rather spread out.
You might just have to set aside a few hours to download all the
IE pages if you want to keep a good, quick reference at hand.

  What you will probably need much more is the Document
Object Model reference, which is much bigger. There's
cursory coverage in VBScript Programmer's Reference
(Wrox publ.) but it really just amounts to a listing - if you
don't already know how to use the properties and methods
it won't do much good. So again, you probably have to settle
for sample DHTML code and MSDN online.
