Here you get the responses at your answers:
"We all know what a .HTM file. But what about a .HTA file? The two are  
closely related, yet very different. Let me explain.

was developed by Microsoft, so is a proprietary concept, and only works  
in conjunction with Internet Explorer (specifically version 5 and  
above). "
