Hi,
I use the standard example to start a program:
Private Sub StartWithArguments()
' Declare and instantiate a new process component.
Dim myproc As System.Diagnostics.Process
myproc = New System.Diagnostics.Process

' Do not receive an event when the process exits.
myproc.EnableRaisingEvents = False
' Start Internet Explorer, passing in a Web page.
myproc.Start("IExplore.exe", "http://www.microsoft.com")
End Sub

But my firewall protests and I don't get a connection. If I start via
'start/run' there is no problem, also starting IE and typing the address is
no problem. Does vb.net do anything strange?
The firewall might still be the problem, because IE is started by another
program (the VB appl). The firewall states that and I agree in starting IE.
Should be ok. So I first want to see if VB is the problem. Is there another
way to start a browser with a www address?

Thanks
Frank
