    accessing browser from windows form

    Hi All,

    How would I go about accessing all the currently running browsers on users
    system via a windows form app, to for example, to refresh a page? Is this
    possible? I have used the diagnostics library to get all instances of the
    iexplore processes but am lost as to how to get each browser so I can
    manipuldate some of the properties?

    Cheers & thanks! Joe :)

      You may want to check out 'ShellWindows' which maybe can used to archieve
      what you want:
