C# Selenium multiple windows

I tried to make a script with selenium, where it would open multiple windows/tabs of IE. Now, it would be easy, except for the fact, that I don't know how many tabs will be open.

This is what i have right now:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    ilosc = Convert.ToInt32(numericUpDown1.Value);
    Join();
}

private void Join()
{
    for (int i = 0; i >= ilosc; i++)
    {
        IWebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
        driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(@"https://google.com");
    }
}

And I see a couple of problems here, like the variable name for IWebDriver. I also prefer it multi-threaded, since it won't lag the Form this way. How can i open multiple windows/tabs using this method?

Thanks to pcalkins, i managed to find a way! I made a new thread and started it when the Join() void was called. This is my final code:

        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            ilosc = Convert.ToInt32(numericUpDown1.Value);
            Join();
        }

        void Child()
        {
            IWebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
            driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(@"https://google.com");
        }

        private void Join()
        {
            for (int i = 1; i <= ilosc; i++)
            {
                Thread thr = new Thread(Child);
                thr.Start();
            }
        }

It now works perfectly!
