Hi!

System.Diagnostics namespace has the Process class. Use the Start
method of the same. It has got couple of overloads that might be of
interest to you.

For example:

Process.Start("http://www.wintoolzone.com/");

shall invoke the default system browser and make it navigate to
http://www.wintoolzone.com/
