Hi Igor,
Thanks for your response. I did implement SHDocVw.DWebBrowserEvents2 (in vb.net) and had looked at the NewWindow2 event, but the ppDisp parameter is nothing. So it's not clear how 1) I get a handle to the new process; then 2) pass the session across the processes.
Any further guidence?

Also, is the new URL accessable somewhere? It doesn't seem to be in Navigate events. Having that URL, I could possibly cancel the navigation and open a new axWebBrowser form. That would give me half a work-around.

Thanks,
Reuven
