.NET Process to open web page without tabs or address bar

Is there a way in .NET to have a Process open the default web browser with no address bar and no tabs, WITHOUT using kiosk mode? I can't use the WebBrowser object because it uses IE7, and the pages that need to be opened use JavaScript. I can't use kiosk mode because the client needs the window to appear in a specific area of the screen. I also need to maintain access to the browser because I have to know when the page is closed.

Try this:

dynamic ie = Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetTypeFromProgID("InternetExplorer.Application"));

ie.AddressBar = false;
ie.MenuBar = false;
ie.ToolBar = false;

ie.Visible = true;
ie.Navigate("www.google.com");

This uses automation to achieve what you want.

You can also set the position, add event handlers, etc.

The documentation for this interface is here.
