??? How To - Control IE Using VB.NET ???

[nomaam]

Is it possible to limit the number of open Internet Explorer windows?

My VB.NET program will be using IE, and I would like to ensure that only one IE window can be open. This will be done to prevent pop-up windows from interfering with its work.

I know there are free pop-up blocking programs that I can use, but I would like to have this function built into my program.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have found this code to ensure that only one instance of the VB.NET program is open; could this be modified to control the amount of IE windows?

This is the code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
    ' See if there is already and instance.
    If App.PrevInstance Then
        ' Activate the previous instance
        AppActivate App.Title

        ' Send a key (here SHIFT-key) to set the
        ' form from the previous instance to the
        ' top of the screen.
        SendKeys "+", True

        ' Terminate the new instance
        Unload Me
    End If
End Sub

I am fairly new to VB.NET.
