Shell ("explorer.exe www.google.com") is how I'm currently opening my products ad page after successful install. However I think it would look much nicer if I could do it more like Avira does, or even a popup where there are no address bar links etc. Doing this via an inbrowser link is easy enough <a href="http://page.com" onClick="j...

I'm experimenting with VS 2008 Express edition and when I hit f1 on a keyword or class name I seem to get the Information Not Found page more than 90% of the time. Is this a configuration problem?
