Do you check the URL immediately? You should wait at least until
NavigateComplete2 event fires. Also, does your application run a message
pump? WebBrowser performs navigations asynchronously and requires
message pump.

Again - do you run a message pump? You cannot use WebBrowser with a
tight loop.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not 
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to 
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly 
overhead. -- RFC 1925
