Interface with IE

[andrewhh82]

This may be a dumb question but i'm looking for some info that can at least get me pointed in the right direction. I'm a begginner to intermediate programmer and do it mostly as a hobby. I use Vb.net and C#.net. I would like to know how you go about creating an application that can interact with another one. An example that i wanted to play with was tracking what websites some one visited in IE. basically do what the History does, but make it so it can't be cleared without a password. I know this is probably pretty complicated but if some one can tell me what concepts are involved i think i can do some research on it and play around with it. Thanks for the help.

Start by looking in the registry at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs

Hmm. Yeah, i kind of wish i could record the URL every time i guess there was a site load event in IE.(if that exists) And eventually use it for other browsers. Going to that registry key limits me to IE and it doesn't capture all the sites one goes to, just the sites they typed in. (right?) Thanks for the help though.. anyone else have some input?

I thought you only wanted to track sites from IE as you said the above in your question. Is that not correct anymore?

well, since i'm just learning i would start with IE, but i don't want to be limited to that in the future if i wanted to expand the app.
