Robert,
Using the Web Browser object in a service requires interaction with the
desktop. In general, this is a bad idea.
If you are just looking to submit information to websites, then you
might want to use the HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse classes instead.
They don't require interaction with the desktop.
Hope this helps.
