I think the idea of the feature was some visual feedback when your desktop locks up. Most people usually grab the title bar and shake it when their desktop/application is locked up :confused:

Actually...This will launch any default browser at the URL you specify Private Sub LaunchURL(byval URL as String) Try Process.Start(URL) Catch ex as exception End Try End Sub You can then use: LaunchURL("http://urlhere") from anywhere within your code.. The Try is needed because some browsers like Firefox will sometimes return an error for no reason... Steven
