    text
    copied!<p>I need to run a web application in IE so it at least looks similar to a stand-alone application. I also need to be able to run multiple instances of this web application at the same time in separate sessions.</p> <p>To achieve this look I'd like to always launch Internet Explorer 7 in a new process without toolbars/statusbar from a shortcut on the desktop.</p> <p>I've tried a few things. So far the closet I've come to it is creating a shortcut to the following vb script,</p> <pre><code>Set objExplorer = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") objExplorer.Navigate "http://stackoverflow.com" objExplorer.ToolBar = 0 objExplorer.StatusBar = 0 objExplorer.Width = 1024 objExplorer.Height = 768 objExplorer.Left = 0 objExplorer.Top = 0 objExplorer.Visible = 1 </code></pre> <p>This looks exactly like I want it to. However, if you double-click the shortcut again it does open a new window but within the same process (i.e. there is only one iexplore.exe process in the Windows Task Manager). Since the two instance are within the same process they're sharing the same session. So if you're logged in to one instance of the application then you're logged in to the other instance of the application, which is no good for me.</p> <p>I also tried,</p> <pre><code>"Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" http://stackoverflow.com </code></pre> <p>which always launches a new process but you can't remove just the toolbars/statusbar. Kiosk mode (the "-k" parameter) is no good to me as I need it to appear in a window.</p> <p>Can anyone tell how to always launch Internet Explorer 7 in a new process without toolbars/statusbar from a shortcut on the desktop?</p> <p>I'm open to any kind of technology for the solution.</p> <p>Thanks, Everett</p>
