Want to create a browzar like browser? Very simple, 
goto MSDN.com and download the free version of Microsoft Visual Studio 
(includes Visual Basic for free.)
1] Open Visual Basic and click file>new. Goto Forms>Add form>Webrowser. Click ok.
2] A new form is added, goto Tools>Options> 
   click on the listbox for startup form and ensure that form2 
   or the webbrowser form is selected. Click ok.
3] Hit F5 or click the run button (play button). 
   Now you have your own Browzar like security browser. 
   Market it and sell it - don’t worry it’s exactly the same, less the GUI.
