New Web Browser
-----------------------------------
No popups, simple navigation, and alot of missing features! . I made this in c#. Pretty cool seeing as how noone else here is posting there own web browsers (not that I've checked, so if someone did, please don't be stupid about it). Took a full 2 hours of drag and drop, a bunch of typing, mixed in with a pinch of copy and paste, and voila, Flipnet.

ordinary features

fully functional web browser including:
  800x600 window (if you resize, the window will not become bigger, i 
    haven't fixed that yet)
  url box
  go, stop and refresh button

special features

  its 95% opaque (thought it would be cool if you could see through the   
      window, and a high opacity is beter because it doesn't realy effect   
      what you see)

  don't have to worry about popups, because only one window can be 
       opened(unless you open the program again)

  a help button that doesn't help (changed it to About, then c# crashed, 
    and i guess i didn't change it after the crash...)

  forward and back button that do not work!

Still lots of bugs as you can see, but it still works. It is compiled, and all you have to do is extract then install. Have fun with this, I'm still going to be working on it for a week or so...

*edit* download at 5th post

to make it so that when you hit enter key it launches the get request you simply click the textbox field in design mode and change the default to the procedure that get's launched when you click go.

Sweet, so I fixed the program, and now everything works

ordinary features
800x600 window (now it can't be resized, so nothing screws up)
url box (you can double click or press enter)
go, stop, refresh, back, forward, home(www.compsci.ca(only homepage allowed)) button
the help button has been changed to about

special features

now its 100% opaque untill the splash screen dissapears, so you don't just see black
still no popups
now it has its own icon (not the standard one for all vc# programs)
