        ie.Navigate("http://www.google.com");

        Location.X = Cursor.Position.X;

In .net you have the webBrowser control https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w290k23d(v=vs.110).aspx

all you need to do is create an instance of that control, make it invisible (or size 0)

and navigate using the API: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w6t65c4y(v=vs.110).aspx

once you navigated you are able to query the document and to even invoke clicks InvokeMember("click") in WebBrowser control

Hope this helps.
