We have a Timestamp site on our network that uses an older version of IE to render the page, every time you visit the page in IE8 you cannot interact with it, what shows is an infinite image of the hour glass next to the mouse.

We have been using an ie6-ie7 emulator that apparently tricks either the application itself or the site into thinking that its using an older version of IE. Item found here: http://majorgeeks.com/IE7_to_IE6_Emulator_d5676.html

I would like to recreate this project to run as a service or embed the feature into my webbrowser control so that when the URL is visited that emulation kicks in.

I have tried using FEATURE_NATIVE_DOCUMENT_MODE & FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION which do not seem to work (Registry work around), I have tried HKLM & HKCU as well and still no luck. I have spent the last 2 hours tormenting google, but google has won this battle and I have not accomplished anything sadly. Is there anyway to accomplish this?

This article has a lot to do with what I am refering to but im not working in ASP, my target is C#.NET using a webbrowser control
