Look up System.Diagnostics.Process.Start for how to start another
application.

Also, if you need to navigate to a different page, you can specify the
URL with a command line parameter for internet explorer.

Thanks,

Seth's answer is entirely correct in the sense of what you asked in the first
place.

However, I would urge you to consider not loading IE with a parameter of
the url, but to launch simply the url itself.

It's been a while since I tired to do anything of this sort myself, but if
I remember correctly, this will have the effect of launching the homepage
in the user's browser of choice.

This is not always the best strategy, but in most cases you should find users
alot more agreeable to this course of action.

The code below will open the Web site in the system's default browser:

\\\
Imports System.Diagnostics
....
Process.Start("http://www.example.org/")
