The first thing I made in VB (one of the only things) was a web browser. I just saw that icon for dragging the webBrowser onto the stage and I did it.
After that, I just read the tutorial on the microsoft website to get it working right and such.. I think almost everyone who works with VB has made a browser of some sort..
It was pretty much just like yours, and it even used the IE crap that VB automatically puts there for ya.
I would suggest finding a FireFox clone or something by Netscape rather then microsoft.. I really think that would get you on the right track.
Also, be VERY considerant of W3C standards. Notice how IE doesn't follow the standards, by using an IE clone browser object, you're copying the crap and non-standard-compliant code that goes with it..

Sorry to burst your bubble, but we get AAALLLOOOOOTT of people making VB/IE Web Browsers in this section.. It's actually kind of irritating.
Don't get pissed at me for posting, I'm trying to be part of the sollution here. - "Sollution being- Get those damn IE clones off this forum!"
So get a Safari, Google Chrome, or FireFox clone from somewhere, copy & paste some code and learn something from it. Just don't use the default web browser object & drag + drop crap methods to make a web browser.. Been done millions of times.. You are not going to be the "next big thing" by using the default preferences and most popular tutorials. I appologize in advance
